High-Quality Calipers for Jewellery Making

If you work with jewellery making, having the right measuring tools is essential. A caliper is a tool that helps you measure with precision and is therefore an indispensable part of the goldsmith's toolbox. The caliper consists of a ruler with a slider that can be moved along the ruler. Both the slider and the ruler have jaws, and the distance between these jaws can be read on the ruler's scale. Most calipers are equipped with two sets of jaws. One set grips around an object and can be used to take an external measurement, such as the width of a ring, the length of a wire, and the thickness of a metal plate. The other set of jaws, on the other hand, is used to find an internal measurement, such as an internal ring size. Additionally, many calipers also have a depth measuring rod.

At Aktiv Guld, you will find a large selection of different calipers. Most of our calipers can measure with an accuracy of up to 0.01 mm, ensuring that you can take precise measurements of even the smallest items. Our calipers are ideal for those working with jewellery or watches, often dealing with many small parts.

Calipers come in various sizes. The most common caliper has a measuring length of 0-150 mm, but at Aktiv Guld, you will also find a range of mini calipers with measuring lengths of 0-70 mm and 0-100 mm, respectively. If you are involved in jewellery making, a mini caliper may be advantageous, as this tool is easier to handle for small items and often comes at a lower price than calipers with a larger measuring range. Furthermore, at Aktiv Guld, you will find calipers for both right and left hands. Take a look at our assortment and find the caliper that suits your needs. We have a wide selection in various price ranges.

Should You Choose Manual Caliper or Digital Caliper?

When buying a new caliper, you should also be aware that calipers come in a manual version and a digital version. When working with the manual caliper, you read the distances on the ruler yourself. On the other hand, when using the digital version, the caliper reads the measurements on your item for you and displays the measurement on a digital display. You should be aware that the digital caliper is more sensitive than the manual one and should not be used in a humid climate. However, the digital caliper provides a more precise measurement. The chance of measuring incorrectly may be higher with the manual caliper, but whether you choose one over the other depends on preferences.

At Aktiv Guld, you will find digital calipers with an extra-large display, such as the caliper from HAJ-TECH, which shows the measurement result on a display with a digit height of 14 mm. This makes the reading even clearer, ensuring that you never doubt whether you have read it correctly. If you only want the best of the best, we also offer the Mitutoyo Digimatic caliper at Aktiv Guld, which, with its exclusive patented AOS sensor technology, provides improved measurement security and precise zero resetting every time.

In addition to calipers, you will also find other measuring tools in our range, such as steel rulers, angle gauges, spring calipers, stone and thickness gauges, etc., which help you measure accurately in your daily work and are incredibly practical to have in your toolbox. Check out our other selection of hand tools as well. Here you will find a large selection of pliers, saw frames, and hammers.
