Mitutoyo 160-119 Vernier Caliper with nib style jaw, 0 to 18" / 0 to 450 mm

Description

The Mitutoyo 160-119 Vernier Caliper is an analog caliper with nib-style jaws and a measuring range of 0 to 18 inches (0 to 450 mm). It features a fine-adjustment carriage for precise measurements and is made of hardened, corrosion-resistant stainless steel.

Key features

• Purpose: Unlike standard calipers, the jaws have round measuring faces designed for superior accuracy when measuring the inside diameter of objects like pipes, holes, and cylinders.
• Reading measurements: On metric models, the upper, offset vernier scale allows for a direct reading of internal dimensions without needing to add the nib width to the final measurement. 
• Precise control: The fine-adjustment carriage allows for minute feeding of the slider, which is essential for obtaining the highest accuracy possible.
• Thumb wheel and locknut: A thumb wheel is included for easy adjustment, along with a locknut to secure the measurement once the correct position is reached.
• Material: It is constructed of hardened, corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
• Finish: The main scale and vernier scale have a satin chrome finish to provide high readability and reduce glare.
• Raised sliding surfaces: The sliding surfaces are raised to prevent wear on the scale graduations, ensuring the markings remain clear over time.
