Clear Angular Measurement with Controlled, Practical Handling

The Koch-Mendez degree gauge is a manual instrument for measuring angles from 0° to 180°, helping dental and ophthalmic professionals assess angular relationships with a clearly graduated, beveled face. Its 5° increments support straightforward visual readings, while the 4-inch length provides a practical format for positioning during measurement tasks. The 11.7 mm internal diameter accommodates the intended measured feature, and the round handle supports controlled manipulation. A ring mounted at 135° and 36-point fixation provide defined positioning features that can help maintain consistent orientation as the gauge is placed, read, and removed during procedural workflows.

Use Cases

• Measure angular relationships from 0° to 180° during dental assessment and procedural planning.
• Use the 5° graduations to obtain a direct visual reading when evaluating alignment or positioning.
• Apply the gauge in ophthalmic measurement workflows where a manual degree gauge is appropriate.
• Position the instrument using the 135° ring-mounted configuration and round handle for controlled handling.
• Use the 36-point fixation feature to support defined positioning during repeated measurement tasks.

Care & Handling

• Clean the gauge according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the beveled face, graduations, ring mounting, fixation points, and handle before and after use for visible damage or distortion.
• Handle and store the gauge to protect the face markings and measurement features from impact or abrasion.
• Confirm that the gauge remains legible and properly aligned before returning it to service.

General use; follow facility protocols.
