Product Information
Full details
The Wiha caliMax Vernier Caliper is designed for professionals and hobbyists who require a lightweight, reliable precision measurement tool for everyday workshop tasks. Its core benefit lies in its high-tech non-metallic construction, which prevents scratching sensitive surfaces and provides excellent readability through its high-contrast green scale. However, because it is crafted from fiberglass rather than hardened steel, it is intended for general measurement needs rather than extreme industrial environments involving high heat or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting
Measurement feels gritty or sticks during sliding
Check the beam for dust or debris; wipe with a clean, dry cloth to ensure smooth movement.
Hard to read the vernier scale
Ensure you are viewing the scale directly from above to minimize parallax errors and utilize good lighting to take advantage of the high-contrast green scale.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Lightweight and portable construction
- Non-marring material protects delicate workpieces
- Easy-to-read green high-contrast scale
- Supports both Metric and Imperial units
- Highly durable fiberglass material
Cons
- Not suitable for extremely high-temperature environments
- Fiberglass construction lacks the rigidity of stainless steel models
- Requires manual vernier interpretation rather than digital display
Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Initial Setup: No calibration or battery installation is required. Simply slide the beam to ensure movement is smooth across the full 150mm range.
- Cleaning: Use a dry, lint-free cloth to wipe the beam and jaws after use. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the fiberglass material.
- Storage: Store the caliper in a clean, dry place. Avoid placing heavy tools on top of the caliper to prevent bending or warping the fiberglass beam.
- Compatibility: The dual-scale design is compatible with standard Metric and Imperial drafting and engineering projects requiring 0.1 mm precision.
