About This Product
Students clean the jaws and the object, close the jaws gently to check for zero error, then place the object between the outside jaws and read the main and vernier scales. The calliper measures cylinders, rods, tubes, blocks and small components, and its readings can be compared with those of an electronic digital caliper to contrast manual and digital methods.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Does it need a battery? No. It is read manually from the main and vernier scales, with no electronic display, charging or cells.
