CRACK MICROSCOPE AZA1153
The AZA-LAB Crack Microscope (Model: AZA1153) is a high-accuracy inspection instrument engineered for measuring surface crack widths in concrete, masonry, metal, and other structural substrates. Compact, field-ready, and equipped with an internal measurement scale, it is widely used in civil engineering, construction QC, NDT inspections, forensic analysis, and structural health monitoring.Cracks serve as early warning indicators of structural distress—whether due to shrinkage, fatigue, environmental loading, or material degradation. The AZA1153 provides up to 40x magnification combined with a calibrated reticle, enabling direct measurement of cracks as fine as 0.02 mm, making it ideal for routine and advanced diagnostic work.The microscope is built with a rugged ABS housing, ensuring impact resistance during field use. Its ergonomic, handheld design allows stable placement and consistent focusing on rough surfaces. A built-in LED illumination system enhances visibility in low-light environments, ensuring reliable readings in tunnels, basements, and outdoor nighttime inspections.
