    Digital Calipers with Fractional Display

    Convert measurements to fractions with the push of a button. These calipers measure in both decimals and fractions of an inch, so you don't need to memorize conversions. They're especially handy for carpentry and similar jobs that involve measurements down to 1/64".
    With an LCD display, these calipers give instant measurements—no need to count graduations. Swap between inch and metric or set the position to zero, all with the press of a button.
    Plastic Jaw—Best for measuring delicate surfaces, these jaws won't scratch. They also won't conduct electricity when working with wires and electrical parts. However, they'll wear down faster than metal jaws.
    Zero-Position Memory (ABS)—Retain the caliper's position when turned off, so you don't need to reset the zero point each time. Also called absolute (ABS) positioning.

    Dial Calipers with Fractional Display

    No need to memorize conversions. The dial on these calipers lists measurements in both decimals and fractions of an inch. They're especially handy for carpentry and similar jobs that involve measurements down to 1/64".
    To calculate your final measurement, simply add the value on the dial to the number on the main scale. These calipers are battery-free, so they’re always ready to use. However, the glass dial and internal components can break if accidentally dropped.
    Plastic Jaw—Best for measuring delicate surfaces, these jaws won't scratch. They also won't conduct electricity when working with wires and electrical parts. However, they'll wear down faster than metal jaws.
    Built-In Backlash Control—The needle stays steady even if the dial is bumped or vibrated for reliably accurate measurements.

    Pocket Slide Ruler Calipers

    No longer than a pencil for quick measurements on the go. Made entirely of metal, these calipers won't break if dropped or short-circuit if rinsed or rained on.
    Starrett—Our most accurate slide ruler calipers are precision made and tested in the U.S. Push and pull the thumb wheel to move the jaws with one hand. Then tighten the screw to lock them in place so they won't creep as you measure. A slide stop prevents these calipers from accidentally pulling apart into two pieces.

    Your traditional calipers, combining precision and durability. This classic design uses a sliding vernier scale. Just add the measurement from the main scale to the measurement on the vernier scale to get accurate readings as small as 0.001". Made completely out of metal, these calipers won't break when dropped or short-circuit when wet. They're battery-free, so they're always ready to use.
    Mitutoyo—The go-to for machinists and engineers. Every part of these calipers is made within Mitutoyo's automated system and tested in-house in Japan. Their jaws are laser cut to exact dimensions for the most reliable measurements.
