Italian term or phrase: "comparatore centesimale"
The contest is always Beam-test. The sentence is the following one:

"Nel corso della prova si misura lo scorrimento della barra mediante un gruppo di almeno 2 ***comparatori centesimali", fissati a ciascuna estremità alla parte sporgente della barra stessa......."

Ho trovato letteralmente "Centesimal comparators" ma vorrei conferme!!
Thanx!;-)

centesimal comparators
Explanation:
although most references found are from italian sites, I believe that this is a term very much used. It could be centesimal calibers, gauges or other things that may be more specific in measuring dimensions but without the rest of the text and perhaps a picture I think it's best to leave it alone and stay generic
