Bring a distinctive piece of East German industrial history into your study, office, or collection with this mechanical inclinometer from the former German Democratic Republic (DDR). Its green hammer finish, metal construction, and curved degree scale evoke the character of a 20th-century machine shop. The instrument features a spirit level vial and a curved scale graduated from 0 to 90 degrees. The frame bears “made in DDR,” a triangular quality mark containing “1,” and, according to the supplied information, the marking “Skalenwert 1,0 mm/m.” This last marking indicates the scale value, not a guarantee of current accuracy or calibration. A specific manufacturer or model has not been established; VEB does not identify an individual maker. The wooden case, with its fitted interior and metal clasps, makes this an appealing display piece for collectors of historical measuring instruments and industrial objects. Visible wear and patina contribute to its vintage character.
