Frequently Asked Questions:
Are these calipers suitable for measuring live dimensions directly?
No, they’re transfer calipers—used to gauge and compare dimensions rather than directly read them.
Can I use them on both wood and metal?
Yes, they’re suitable for internal measurement tasks across a range of materials.
Do they come pre-calibrated?
No calibration is needed; they are manually adjusted for comparative measuring.
Is the spring adjustable or fixed?
The spring provides consistent resistance and is not adjustable but designed for reliable tension.
What’s the maximum internal diameter they can measure?
Approximately 170mm, depending on the spread and how they’re set.
Can I use these calipers with a digital or dial gauge?
They are not digital; they are standalone tools for manual internal measurement for comparison.
How do I ensure accurate measurements?
Carefully adjust the calipers using the knurled nut, then compare against a ruler or known standard.
Are they magnetic or non-magnetic?
They are made of carbon steel and may exhibit magnetic properties but are not designed as magnetic tools.
