Kinex
Accuracy, reliability and affordability. There are plenty of precision measuring tool manufacturers who can hit two out of the three, but it is surprisingly rare to get all three at once.
Kinex are a small European manufacturer who focus their time and effort, and ultimately your money, on getting the metallurgy and working surfaces right.
All Kinex products are produced to German (DIN) industrial norms. As a general guide DIN 875/1 is equivalent to BS939 grade B for squares and DIN 874/00 is fractionally tighter than BS5204 grade A for straightedges.

Kinex Parallax-Free Monoblock Vernier Caliper 150mm
£32.00A straighforward, well made, good quality manual vernier caliper. The thing that I like about this particular model is that the vernier scale is a generous 50mm long, so you get resolution of 0.02mm but it is as easy to read as a rule with just whole mm graduations. On the top, it also has a 1.25 inch long imperial vernier scale giving thousandths of an inch. The sliding jaw is accurately ground from a solid block of hardened sta... -
Kinex Absolute Zero Digital Caliper 150mm
£65.00The Kinex Absolute Zero Digital caper is a serious precision instrument. You would need to spend nearly as much again before you reached this standard with any other brand. The jaws slide incredibly smoothly, tracked continuously and instantaneously by the display with no 'blank screen moments'. The display can be zeroed at any position and that stetting will be stored even if the display is switched off. Capacity 0-6 inch / 150mm Displ... -
Kinex DIN875/0 Engineers' Pocket Square 60 x 40mm
£18.50The standard range of engineers' squares only goes down to 75mm, but we thought a smaller, lighter, high accuracy square that can be carried in a pocket or apron would be a useful thing. Ideal for checking ground and honed edges, joinery, trial fits and glue ups. Kinex marking and measuring instruments are carefully handmade in small batches to ensure accuracy, reliability, and conformity to German DIN standards. The invisibly rivetted joi... -

Kinex Engineers' Steel Protractor 0-180deg 200mm x 290mm
£26.90Whilst a sliding bevel is useful for transferring angles it is sometimes necessary to convert them to or from a numerical value. The Kinex 251613 is a proper engineers' protractor, precision ground from thick stainless steel sheet and large enough to position accurately to half a degree.

Kinex DIN874/2 Straightedge 500mm
£52.90Straight to better than +/-10.5 microns (0.00042") over the entire length on both edges. Kinex manufacture straightedges in a wide range of accuracies. We went for DIN 874/2 as it is a good grade for general engineering and fine cabinetmaking without being too expensive. If you want to measure whether something is or isn’t 4 thou, then +/- half a thou represents a 12.5% maximum potential error. Plenty straight enough to tell the differenc... -
