Caliper Vernier
Product Code : LSK-PL-10371
Caliper Vernier (SKU LSK-PL-10371), also called a vernier caliper, is a plated steel Columbus-type caliper with a dual metric and imperial scale for inside, outside and depth measurements. It suits school physics practicals, college labs and workshop training. Science Lab Supplies makes the caliper on its own production floor at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and offers it at factory terms to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Each scale and range of this Columbus-type caliper has its own row in the table. In short, the metric scale covers 0–12.5 cm read to 0.1 mm, the imperial scale covers 5 inches graduated in 1/128 inch steps, and the plated steel body takes inside, outside and depth readings.

Applications and Experiments for the Caliper Vernier
The caliper measures small lengths, diameters and depths more precisely than a ruler and teaches least count and zero error. As a school vernier caliper in India, it matches the first practicals of the NCERT Class 11 physics lab manual and the measurement units of B.Sc., diploma and ITI courses.
- Class 11 physics: diameter of a small sphere, for example one of the 12, 18 or 25 mm Pendulum Bobs or Spheres, and the internal diameter and depth of a beaker.
- Density practicals: measuring the sides of the 20 mm Metal Density Cubes to work out their volume.
- Finding the least count and correcting for zero error before readings.
- ITI and polytechnic workshops: checking inside, outside and depth dimensions of machined parts.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Caliper Vernier is supplied as a single plated steel instrument with its dual metric and imperial scales, ready for inside, outside and depth measurements as described above. Larger class quantities and any companion measuring instruments are listed separately on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You may ask for one caliper or a full set for every student bench. Our quotation gives the packing, delivery time and price for exactly that quantity, and other items from a physics lab equipment list for class 11 and 12 can be added to the same document.
With an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda and South Africa. A class set of calipers can be priced once you send the number needed from the contact page or save the caliper in the enquiry cart; the lab tender page covers bids for complete laboratories.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the least count of this vernier caliper?
The metric scale reads to 0.1 mm over a 0–12.5 cm range. The imperial scale covers 5 inches and is graduated to 1/128 inch, so the same tool serves both unit systems.
What can the Caliper Vernier measure?
As a Columbus-type caliper, it is built to take inside, outside and depth measurements with a single tool, read on either the metric or the imperial scale.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Every caliper of this model is produced at the Science Lab Supplies factory in Saha, Ambala, India, so the company is the manufacturer and the quotation, specification and dispatch all come from the same source.
Can calipers be quoted in class sets?
Yes. State the number of calipers and the delivery location, and the quotation will show packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, with any rulers or micrometers you add.
