Mitutoyo is a Japanese firm that specializes in manufacturing precise measuring instruments, and this product is a standard caliper for performing various measuring tasks. It can handle four types of measurement: outside, inside, depth, and step. The face angle of the vernier is a mere 14° to facilitate easy reading. Instructions To measure the external diameter or width of an object, use the outside jaws. To measure the internal diameter and step of an object, use the inside jaws. To measure the depth of an object, use the depth measuring blade (which is also known as a depth bar).
