Product Information

Full details

The Husqvarna Nordtec Caliper 36 cm is designed for professionals and serious DIYers who need precise measurements for engine components, particularly cylinder volumes. Its key benefit lies in providing clear, dual-sided centimetre gradations and a displacement table for quick calculations. A potential caveat is its specialized nature, making it less versatile for general measuring tasks.

FAQs

What is the primary use of the Nordtec Caliper 36 cm?

Its primary use is for precise measurement of engine cylinders and calculating their volumes using the integrated displacement table.

Can this caliper be used for general measuring tasks?

While it can measure lengths up to 36 cm, its specialized features like the displacement table make it most effective for engine-specific measurements. For general tasks, a standard tape measure or ruler might be more suitable.

How do I read the centimetre gradations?

The caliper features gradations on two sides, allowing you to read measurements in centimetres directly on the scale indicated by the caliper jaws.

How is the displacement table used?

The displacement table typically correlates bore diameter and stroke length (or other relevant dimensions) to provide the engine's displacement volume. Consult the table markings for specific instructions related to your measurements.

What is the weight of the caliper?

The caliper weighs 0.55 pounds.

Is the caliper made of metal?

The product description does not specify the material, but its weight and intended use suggest a durable metal construction suitable for workshop environments.

How should I clean the caliper?

Wipe the caliper clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the markings or surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Inaccurate measurements

Ensure the caliper arms are clean and free of debris. Check for any damage or bending to the arms. Make sure the caliper is zeroed correctly before taking measurements.

Displacement table difficult to read

Ensure adequate lighting. Clean the surface of the table gently with a soft cloth. If the markings are worn, consider using a separate calculator for volume calculations.

Caliper feels loose or stiff

Check that all screws are appropriately tightened but not over-tightened, which could impede movement. If the movement is consistently stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant applied to the pivot point may help, but use sparingly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides precise measurements for engine cylinders.
  • Dual-sided markings enhance usability.
  • Includes a convenient displacement table for volume calculations.
  • Lightweight and easy to handle.
  • Durable construction for professional use.

Cons

  • Highly specialized for engine measurements; may not be ideal for general-purpose measuring.
  • The 36 cm length might be limiting for larger components.
  • Requires some knowledge of cylinder volumes for full utilization of the displacement table.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required. The caliper is ready for use out of the box.

Compatibility: This caliper is designed for measuring physical dimensions, particularly cylinder volumes. It is compatible with standard engine components where precise bore measurements are needed.

Care: To maintain accuracy and longevity:

  1. Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after each use. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
  3. Handle with care to avoid dropping or bending the measuring arms.
