Mitutoyo 0-6"/0-150mm Advanced Onsite Sensor (AOS) Absolute Scale Digital Caliper - 500-197-30

JORGE MARINA BALSELLS: Podria funcionar mejor? Es muy dificil. Tomas una medida y la tomas un montón de veces más y siempre da la misma medida.

Matthew: I've had this for a while now in my shop and really, you get what you pay for. This is worth it! It is very easy to use, seems to be super accurate in it's readings, and really - what more could you want in a caliper? If you want a basic digital caliper that will last and is well built - this is the one for you.

JOHNNY H.: Holding up well so far.

Ian Mazursky: This is my 5th. I have 4, 6 and 8" and a couple of duplicates for different work areas.
They last forever on a single battery and are very accurate for a caliper.

I am very happy with each one and ill get more one day!

Luis Espino: A little expensive, but I still have it and it's as accurate as the first day. Every professional should own one of this.

Darek: Not coolant proof

GeoffA: I have been using Mitutoyo callipers for over 45 years and I have become accustomed to their accuracy and reliability. This purchase was to upgrade to a digital display. The calliper is everything I expected; easy to use, clear display and spot on accuracy checked against a micrometer. A resolution of 0.01mm is better than general engineering expectations and heading well into the toolmaking world. Mitutoyo have retained four measurement types; external, internal, step and depth with knife edges on the external and internal jaws. The callipers from 40 years ago used a toothed rack as a measuring element but conversion to digital measuring system has removed this weak point making the instrument more robust and reliable. The instrument case has been upgraded and is now made from a robust plastic and able to protect the calliper when not in use.

Mark Harris: These are genuine mitutoyo calipers, there's not really much more to say about them. They work perfectly, they measure perfectly, the battery lasts forever and the absolute measurement means you never need to zero the calipers.

Yes, these are expensive, significantly more expensive than the 150mm version but that extra 50mm over a 'standard' caliper makes a big difference - many times I've maxed out a standard caliper, the 200mm range is well worth having.

Whilst cheap digital calipers are generally very good, they can be a bit hit and miss. Measurements with cheap calipers are typically very good, but they don't always run smoothly or can have points where the measurement skips, the steel isn't as hard as quality calipers and the grind of the faces isn't as good. The Mitutoyos of course exhibit none of these issues, they are incredibly smooth across the entire range, the steel is exceptional and the grinding is perfect. It doesn't matter how fast you open/close the calipers, it will never miss a step, and zero is always exactly zero.

This model is not coolant proof, so not good for machinists, but they are perfect for engineers working at a desk or clean...

RBRB: Everything about this seems like the real deal. From the packaging to the fit and finish of the tool. With most Japanese products it doesn't seem like they have the American ideal of " yeah that will do" if it's not perfect it simply wont go out of the factory. From the folds on the paper in the manual, warranty card and certificate too little details like the staple holding the battery, it is obvious that great care and precision was used in every step of the manufacturing process. Important observations to note... The serial number on the certificate of inspection matches the serial number on the tool. Mine was shipped with the SR44 battery, an expensive battery that hardly any fakes use. There was no battery in the compartment, and it needed installation. Fakes commonly ship with a battery already installed (other than sr44) . Moving the caliper feels very clean and consistent. The case is high quality, with no foam inside. It's stamped PP 2 on the inside and stamped "Made In Japan" on the bottom. However I think there is a slight bend in the tail (as seen in one of the pictures) there is a noticeable resistance at about 3 inches, although it is very very minimal, something you...
