Fowler 52-008-018-0 Long Range Dial Caliper with 0-18" Measuring Range,Silver / White

The Fowler Extended Range stainless steel dial caliper has dial graduations of 0.001" with +/-0.003" accuracy. The caliper has a knurled lock screw to hold the sliding jaw in position when required. A covered rack prevents dirt and debris from interfering with the gears and helps avoid errors of measurement. This caliper is used for measuring inside dimensions (ID), outside dimensions (OD), depths, and steps. The caliper measures 0.10" per revolution of the dial. The black dial has 0.001" graduations, and the beam has engraved 0.10" graduations. The outside jaw depth is 3.125". The hardened stainless steel components, including the beam, measuring surfaces, rack, gears, and depth rod, offer corrosion resistance, increased accuracy, and long life. Shock-proof movement eliminates gear misalignment, while the dual pinion drive mechanism reduces wear on the rack and pinion. An adjustable dial enables setting zero. Fowler, an American company, manufactures inspection and measuring instruments such as electronic indicators, calipers, bore gages, and micrometers. The company, founded in 1946, is headquartered in Newton, MA.
