Rockler Digital Height Gauge

Enjoy the rewards of precisely fitting joints and perfectly tuned machines! This multi- purpose gauge is accurate to within 0.001". It can be used to set the exact height of your blade or bit on the table saw, router table and a host of other machines. You can raise the gauge to the desired height and raise the blade to match, or you can set the caliper on the bit and raise it until the display reads the correct height. It’s also an ideal tool for leveling the knives and setting the depth of cut on your jointer. Heavy, solid steel base provides maximum stability. Changes from inches to millimeters and zeroes out with the push of a button.

Accurate depth of cut is critical for assemblies. When cutting dadoes on the table saw, for example, a small error in the depth of cut is quickly doubled when the two end panels are assembled into a cabinet. This digital height gauge provides accurate readings to within 0.001" to eliminate any error and ensure a smooth glue up. Accurate to within 0.001" Height ranges from 0" to 5" Simply push a button to switch from inches to millimeters Zero out to table or base level with the push of a button Heavy duty solid steel base provides maximum stability.

1) Submitted by R, from Lemon Grove, CA on 11/20/2009 Customer Rating: When the gauge 1st arrived and I took it out of the box, it was on and would not turn off, zero or change display type from mm to inches. Because I had a similiar experience with a much cheaper digital gauge, I tried removing the battery for a few minutes. That worked, but display was flashing off and on. A few days later I was able to install a new battery, no further problems. The indicator arm seems a little tight on the upright bar, if I try to use a blade or router bit to raise the indicator, the base is not heavy enough to hold the entire unit from raising with the blade. Overall though I am pleased with this product, the accuracy is fantastic.

2) Submitted by Martin Smith, from Kankakee, IL on 11/19/2009 Customer Rating: To come right to the point, how did I ever do without this amazing tool before? Setups are so much easier and faster and every cut is "right on the money". There's no "guestimating" and what you see is what you get. Why did I not get one of these sooner?

3) Submitted by Amaury Patterson, from Weslaco, TX on 10/29/2009 Customer Rating: It is a great product if you know how to use, like everything else. I'm always happy when I receive something new and I learn how to properly use and its applications, this one was very easy, very affordable and good quality; Thanks Rockler.

5) Submitted by Benny Burger, from Garfield, KS on 10/14/2009 Customer Rating: I purchased this product to set depth on my router and rabbet cuts on my table saw and have found many other uses for it. One of which is set up of table saw fence. Set it against the fence on the feed side and zero then move to outfeed end of blade to check runout. Works perfectly. Love it and would definitely recommend anyone to purchase.

6) Submitted by Mark, from Palmdale, CA on 10/13/2009 Customer Rating: Being a bit of a perfectionist I like to work with precise measurements. This digital Height Gauge was perfect for making dado cuts using my router on a bookshelf project. I can see how well this will work on other future projects.

7) Submitted by Kevin T. Fitzpatrick, from Newcastle, ME. on 10/13/2009 Customer Rating: I recieved my Rockler digital height gauge a couple of weeks ago. I am a student of machine tool in a local collage and this is a welcome addition to my tool box. I used it many times already for checking the height of the parts that I make in class. I find it to be very acurrate and precise.
