Material Thickness Gauge

admin

I was flipping through a Miller catalogue today and noticed they are now sending a material thckness gauge with every welder. I'm not in the markett for a new welder but I would REALLY like one of those credit card size thickness gauge.Any idea wheere to get them? I couldn't find one on the Miller website and the only one I could find online was a very expensive professional digital QC one. I don't want anything fancy. Would Home Depot or Lowe's carry anything like this? That is all we have here, unless someone knows where I can find one online?

Reply:We have a digital thickness gauge we just came out with. It is not on our site yet, but should be in a couple weeks.
Reply:Well dang, I wish I had realized the $25 min. Order a few days ago. I just ordered a women's helmet and could have added that, too. Oh, well. I probably don't need one immediately and I am sure there is something else I will need. In the meantime, I'll check out the ones you all posted links to. Thanks again!
