Built with heat-treated stainless steel and featuring quick-change guide tubes, it offers durability and versatility for materials ranging from 0.4 to 24 mm in diameter. Its low-friction guiding system ensures accuracy, while the mechanical counter allows easy tracking of measurements, making it an essential tool for metric measurement tasks.

## Description

Accommodates a wide variety of flexible materials, from 0.4 to 24 mm diameter. Measures wire rope and similar stiff materials to 13 mm diameter. This product provides measurements in Metric units (meters and decimeters) only.

Review: Mechanical counter is trash, rendering the entire unit worthless - Unit is solid and Made in USA but the entire point is to precisely measure length and they stuck a garbage 10-cent Chinese mechanical counter on it that hangs up and renders the entire unit worthless. Literally does not work straight out of the box. Ordered a replacement counter from the distributor and it's just as much a piece of garbage as the first one, and now we're stuck with an overpriced boat anchor and nothing to measure our material. At this price point skimping on the "brain" of the unit is a boneheaded shortsighted decision. Particularly when there are several finely-crafted American-made all-metal mechanical counters on the market at reasonable price points. Disgraceful management decisions like this are why foreign manufacturers are eating American manufacturers' lunch. Time for Olympic Instruments to adapt, sell out or die out. A shameful display from the self-proclaimed leader in linear measurement equipment and technology. Attachment: junkcounters1and2.mov
