This depth measuring caliper features a long stem and a sliding jaw which allows its measurement range to most commonly start from 0-150mm and go up to 0-300mm. With a mark from the sturdy stainless steel (dual: 52-56 HRC), the vernier scale provides precision of 0.02 mm which ensures it is durable in harsh machining industries. While measuring step height, groove depth, and counterbore depth, it also complies with ISO 3611 standards allowing it to widely used in automotive component inspection and mold making.
