Q: What are the graduations?
The scale is graduated in 0.2mm increments.
05N3803 - Veritas Metric Tapered Gauge
A tapered gauge effectively stretches any scale for accurate reading. This one stretches the standard scale by a factor of seven. When a thickness difference of 1/8" is stretched over 7/8" of the scale, small differences in thickness can easily be measured with fine accuracy.
The aluminum gauge can be used many ways – for setting fences, router bits and drill-press stops, as well as measuring gaps when you repair work.
The hard anodized surface is scratch resistant, yet easy to write on with a pencil. In most uses accurate to ±0.002", the gauge is guaranteed to have no greater error than 0.005" in any measurement.
With 0.2mm graduations, it has a fine tip (1/32" thick) and measures up to 1-1/8" (or equivalent) thickness. Hard-shell case included.
Made in Canada.
Tapered gauges are also available with Imperial or decimal scales.

It stretches any scale for accurate reading. This one stretches the standard scale by a factor of seven, so a thickness difference of 1/8" spreads over 7/8" of the scale and small differences read easily.
In most uses it is accurate to ±0.002", and it carries a guarantee of no greater error than 0.005" in any measurement.
It suits setting fences, router bits and drill-press stops, as well as measuring gaps when you repair work.
It has a fine tip 1/32" thick and measures up to 1 1/8" (or equivalent) thickness.
