6 in. 3-Mode Digital Fractional Caliper

Decent calipers for the money, almost identical to the Neiko 01407A. When I first opened it, the LCD would not power on at all unless I pressed on the battery door, then it would be randomly dim or completely lose power with handling. I determined the battery cover was not fully pressing the battery into the contacts, so I cut 4-5 tiny squares of painter's tape and stacked them on the inside of the battery cover. No problems now, just silly that such a silly fix had to be made.

Display can only be read from an angle. Straight on the display is very dim. Pictures was right out of box with factory battery, and then had the same results with another new battery. Returning.

Sturdy case, easy to measure small to medium size objects with easy to read display. Comes with spare battery. Great warranty, as good as craftmans tool warranty. GREAT PRODUCT Home Depot!!

Great caliper. Had it for 3 months now. I always use Husky tools, and they have never let me down.

great product, reliable and well build

Very well constructed and Very Accurate I've had these calipers a couple of months and I use them almost daily. I bought these mainly because of the fraction capability, a great feature. a great tool for a great price. I Highly recommend

In the few weeks I've had them, these calipers helped me to get the exact measurements-decimals in inches and millimeters-that I otherwise couldn't get with a ruler. These are measurements I need as an architecture student building scale models. No issues as of yet.

We’ve all heard the saying “measure twice, cut once” a thousand times since we were children. If you haven’t heard it before, then you should have because it’s true. And one of the most basic and essential tools to have in your garage repertoire is the caliper. Living in this computerized age we now have digital calipers. There are endless applications for this tool and I use it frequently for precise small measurements. First off, the digital readout screen is extremely clear and easy to read. The 3 mode setting allows you to read the measurement in inches (decimals), inches (fractions), and millimeters. The smooth slide action of this caliper is appreciated but it is also tight enough not to slip around. It feels well-made and durable. Calibrating the caliper is also easy enough with just a press of a button to reset the 0 mark. Like any other caliper, you can use the inner grips to measure the outer width of a piece of wood per se, or the outer grips to measure the inner diameter of a conduit pipe. The included carrying case and extra battery are a welcome addition to the tool as well.

This is one of the best digital calipers that I have ever used. Its highly accurate and very easy to read. This is very accurate, when I tested these on a set of machined parallels they measured down to the ten thousands on four different sizes of parallels. From 3/8" to 7/8" the measurement was perfect. Even when measuring the machined parallels on the long side they measured right at 3.5000". Depth measurement is just as accurate with these calipers. The readout is nice and large and very easy to read in all three modes and from all angles. The modes are very handy and make reading measurements easy for anyone. Almost everyone feels comfortable using fractions of an inch, now you can change from fractions to decimals to millimeters on the fly. The calipers are very smooth and easy to operate. The calipers are easy to lock in place with the set screw, to hold your last measurement or vary the resistance of the slide. These are a great addition to everyone's toolbox.

Have you ever tried to convert mm to fractions or tenths of an inch or the other way...well with this instrument it will measure and convert in any of 3 modes! The LCD is easy to read and the control buttons are placed right where you'd want them to be too! It will measure both inside and outside dimensions too. And it also does depth measurements...it does it all! Very accurate too 0.001 inch or 0.03mm. It comes with the battery ready to go and also a nice protective carry case with room for spare batteries inside. This measuring instrument is going to come in handy like for instance have you ever tried to measure the outside or inside diameter of a pipe with a tape measure? Not the most accurate way compared to the results you will get with this tool!
