Shop High-Quality Digital Calipers, Vernier Calipers, and Dial Calipers

When it comes to measuring the dimensions of an object with precision, calipers are essential tools for any engineer, machinist, or DIY enthusiast. However, choosing the right type of caliper can be challenging, especially with so many options available. Digital, dial, and vernier calipers are the three most common types used in the industry. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages, making it crucial to select the right one to meet your specific needs. Each type typically offers the ability to measure outside (lengths, widths, thickness), inside (hole sizes, slot widths), and depth measurements (depth of hole, slots, step locations). Digital calipers are the most popular type available on the market today. The digital readout eliminates the need for manual interpretation of measurements, reducing the risk of errors. Most models offer a zero-setting button, inch or metric units, and some even come with a data output function for SPC. Dial calipers are very durable. The dial gauge is protected by a metal casing, making it less likely to be damaged in harsh working conditions. Dial calipers are also very accurate, with most models offering a resolution of 0.01mm or 0.001", and they are easy to read. Vernier calipers are the oldest type of caliper but are still widely used today. They are accurate and reliable, making them suitable for a range of applications.
