Bowers XT Xtreme now measures grooves
1 min read
A 'bi-product' of the extended travel capability of the measuring anvils incorporated into Bowers latest, state-of-the-art XT Xtreme Bore Gauges, is their ability to accurately measure groves.
Available to measure groove sizes from 3 mm up to 300 mm, the XT measuring contacts are able to contract into the body of the gauge, prior to entry into a bore, and then expand further than the anvils of previous generations of popular digital gauges.
Rendering the use of the traditional, and less accurate calliper gauges obsolete, Bowers is capable of precisely machining the matching male profile of circlip grooves, "O" ring grooves and similar features onto the hardwearing measuring anvils. When fitted to the company's XT Xtreme Digital Bore Gauges, users are now able to quickly achieve accurate and repeatable internal groove measuring results.
The XT Xtreme Digital Gauges boast an IP65 rating, rendering them resistant to coolant, water and airborne particles. They also feature a large, clear digital display, metric/inch conversion and an RS 232 output.
