SysML ValueType adds an ability to carry a unit of measure or dimension associated with the value.

SysML1.0:

SysML defines ValueType as a stereotype of UML DataType to establish a more neutral term for system values that may never be given a concrete data representation. For example, the SysML “Real” ValueType expresses the mathematical concept of a real number, but does not impose any restrictions on the precision or scale of a fixed or floating-point representation that expresses this concept. More specific value types can define the concrete data representations that a digital computer can process, such as conventional Float, Integer, or String types.
