McCabe measuring instrument 6 7/8" straight shaft, slightly curved tip rings at 3.0mm, 4.0mm and 5.0mm from distal tip round handle

Clear, Consistent Measurement in a Reachable Handheld Design

The McCabe measuring instrument is designed for taking dimensional references with a 6 7/8-inch straight shaft, a slightly curved tip, and rings positioned at 3.0 mm, 4.0 mm, and 5.0 mm from the distal tip. This configuration provides distinct reference points while extending the working end beyond the hand, helping users maintain a clear relationship between the handle and measurement area. The round handle supports controlled manual positioning, while the gently curved tip can help align the instrument with the area being assessed. Its straightforward design supports repeatable measurement tasks where visible, defined reference points are useful.

Use Cases

• Measure or compare distances using the 3.0 mm, 4.0 mm, and 5.0 mm rings located from the distal tip.
• Use the 6 7/8-inch straight shaft when additional reach is useful during a measurement task.
• Position the slightly curved tip to follow the working area while maintaining a defined reference point.
• Use the round handle for manual instrument control during placement, measurement, and withdrawal.
• Support consistent dimensional checks by selecting the ring that corresponds to the required measurement reference.

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument in accordance with facility procedures and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the shaft, slightly curved tip, measurement rings, and round handle before and after use for visible damage or distortion.
• Handle the tip carefully to preserve its shape and the clarity of the measurement references.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the tip, shaft, and measurement rings from contact damage.

General use; follow facility protocols.
