Crack Detection Microscope

The C & D Measuring Microscope is made by C&D in the UK.

 A precision hand-made product, made for measuring cracks in concrete.
This high definition microscope is further enhanced by having its own adjustable light source for darkened conditions.
The image is focused by turning a knurled knob on the side of the instrument, and the eyepiece scale can be rotated through 360 degrees to align with the direction of the crack, pitch, etc, under examination.
The 4mm width of measurement has a lower scale, divided into 0.2mm divisions, which are subdivided into 0.02mm divisions
Current codes of practice, state that calculated maximum crack widths should not exceed certain values. BS 8110: Part 2 for concrete permits a crack width of 0.3mm which is 15 divisions on the scale for most types of environment.
Comes complete in its own sturdy wooden pocket size case.
Ease of use, strong construction and compact size just 130mm in height makes this instrument ideally suited for harsh environments.
