The drain camera is more excellent in facing the blockage issue with your drain line than the sewer camera. This is because drain cameras have specs for that, such as a smaller diameter cable, more bendable cable, water-resistant camera head, etc. Compared to sewer lines, the drain lines have typical smaller diameter pipes and more … Read more
An hour meter functions to monitor the running time of your engine. In fact, in some cases, it is also equipped with the capability to trace the engine RPM (tachometer). Therefore, some say it a tach-hour meter. Because there are two functions in a single tool: tachometer and hour meter. There are many benefits you … Read more
Many utility infrastructures are buried deep underground. They include telephone lines, electrical, fiber optic, and data cables. These are usually challenging to engineers and maintenance technicians since locating faults is not straightforward. You cannot dig the entire cable length to identify the fault position. That is where the underground cable fault locators come in. Unlike … Read more
Vernier protractor or vernier bevel protractor is an important tool in angle measurement. Not only for measurement but also for layout, it can be a decisive tool for accuracy and precision in which the resolution of the vernier protractor reaches up to 5 minutes. The same as the analog vernier caliper and vernier height gauge, … Read more
We use a paint thickness gauge to measure the vehicle’s surface paint. Touch the probe to the car panel surface, and it will take the reading. It’s not only the main object to measure with this paint meter, it also measures other coatings such as the pipe coating, etc. The base of the paint/coating may … Read more
Rafter square, speed square, triangle square, and rafter angle square are actually the same tools in spite of their different names. This tool is used for a range of applications such as measuring, layout, marking, and scribing guide, it acts as a saw guide for 90- and 45-degree cuts, establishes perpendicular angles, and makes rafters. … Read more
Gauge blocks are a set of precision-cut stable metal blocks of different thicknesses used as a length standard. They usually come in a set, but you could also find them individually. Measuring instruments such as micrometers, digital calipers, vernier calipers, dial calipers, height gauge, dial indicators, and test indicators use gauge blocks for inspection and … Read more
Using a gauge block is not complicated but there are several things you have to master; have to learn at least. Because this block is manufactured and shaped with a high degree of accuracy, a special treat is needed. This page will walk you through how to use the gauge block from the selection up … Read more
There are some points that we can identify in the case of the differences between dial indicator and test indicator. The identification of these two indicator models can lead us to deeply understand whether to use the dial indicator or the test indicator when facing a certain measuring challenge. If you are new and on … Read more
Physical quantities and units are among the basic things in measurement that you have to know. When learning about physics, engineering, instrumentation, and metrology, you are not far from physical quantities and units. In regard to buying a measuring device, it goes the same thing, physical quantities and units are the most fundamental thing you … Read more
