The Mitutoyo 500-196-30 Absolute Digimatic Caliper features Advanced Onsite Sensor (AOS) absolute scale technology, eliminating the need to reset the origin after power loss. The large, clear LCD display with Zero/ABS key allows instant zero-setting at any position for incremental comparison measurements, or quick return to the absolute coordinate from the origin point. Hardened stainless steel construction ensures long-term durability, while carbide-tipped jaw options are also available.
Designed for versatile shop-floor use, this caliper performs four types of measurements — OD, ID, depth, and step — making it a true all-in-one precision tool. An exceptional 20,000-hour battery life under normal conditions minimizes downtime, and the caliper ships in a fitted protective plastic case for safe storage and transport.
