My favorite tool is this one! My favorite tool is this one! It is very well made, has a smooth dial that is easy to read
5/5

In the caliper, there was a face with white On the dial, there are 200 revolutions per minute. These aging eyes couldn't see the dial's divisions well because the numbers were too small. It really makes me happy to have this new one with the number A revolution of 100" is made. The Mitutoyo came up with zero for every time it was used and was in the right place. A feeler gauge with a thickness of 032". Actually, I have 3 other, cheaper dial calipers that I will now throw away, as they are nowhere near as reliable as this.

There is a problem with the instrument I received
5/5

The update is Replacing it with a more accurate one was straight forward. As far as I can tell, the instrument I received is not In this case, it is off by more than 3/1000 of an inch. Setting up the Veritias Setup Blocks is what I am doing. I use a larger block on the Mitutoyo to get more speed out of it. In addition to the fractional caliper, I am also measuring with it, and it is also much more accurate than the microcaliper. All block sizes can be turned on. Thanks. I would appreciate any advice you can give me. ** Update** It is very accurate and I received a replacement. The service I received and the product I received are both of my satisfaction and I updated my review to reflect that.

These are the best tools you can buy for A machine shop belongs to my nephew, so when I needed a new precision measuring instrument, I asked him for recommendations
5/5

It was recommended to me that I get a Mitutoyo TX-570 With an easy-to-read black dial, this 6 dial caliper is a great way to measure your distance. The tool I bought is very good and I am very happy with it. It is worth the money, and it is always best to buy the best we can afford when it comes to.

A cracked lens has been found on the new dial caliper
3/5

At 8, we received the dial caliper It was scheduled to begin at 00PM, but instead started ahead of time. The box was opened on the kitchen table, and the moment I removed the caliper from sealed package, I noticed that the lens was cracked. A return authorization was requested. It would have been a good idea to get another black face caliper, but the price went up My order was for a white face caliper because my 00's are up. While I am troubled by the fact that Mitutoyo's product could have been defective, I will try again and do my best not to open the sealed package until I have checked.

There was a problem with the needle
3/5

These calipers have been in my possession since April 2018, and the needle fell off the dial today, in November 2019. The performance has been decent up to now, although not as smooth as it should be for a $100. My rating of two stars is based on the fact that it provided 19 months of service, but for that kind of money I really expected an heirloom quality product. It will be replaced with an American-made device A Starrett 120A was made The calipers have a 6 mm diameter.

Three months after getting the needle, it broke
3/5

Being a precision machinist, I just started a new job, so I thought I'd make the most of it and The needle popped off after about one and a half months of use. The needle on my previous device never came off, no matter how hard it fell, and it lasted for three Unlike the previous one, this one did not fall over a foot. It did not damage the outside at all, but did damage the interior (the only part I cannot repair).

It is a nice product from Mitutoyo, but some of these were damaged
3/5

Then I ordered from Grainger. I started with Amazon. There were five sets of calipers I received in total. The first four, two from Amazon and two from Grainger all had cracked dial covers. My order finally arrived cracked. I made sure to include a note to Grainger to check it before shipping and I received it without a crack. The set I have is made in Brazil, and I have not had any issues with Japanese goods so far.

It is cracked
3/5

A crack was found on one of the boxes. I wasn't impressed by anything else as well. My impression was that they were a bit cheap. Refunds will be given if I return the items.
