Mitutoyo Absolute Digimatic Caliper Series 500

One of the largest, if not the largest, manufacturer of digital calipers is Mitutoyo and the range that is available is simply staggering. The company utilizes its new Absolute Encode Technology on its calipers that make them even more functional.

 

The Mitutoyo Absolute Digimatic Caliper Series 500 features a range of calipers that is simply incredible. The series 500 calipers feature a large LCD screen for easy readout capability. The Zero/ABS key enables you to set the absolute zero position of the caliper when the jaws are set to any position. This is usually going to be when they are closed but it can also be set at any other point.

Other features of the caliper include a thumb roller on most models, an optional Data Hold Unit, a fitted plastic case except for the largest model which comes in a wooden case. The Mitutoyo Absolute Digimatic Caliper Series 500 models are available either in inch/metric format or in metric only. If you need a caliper that offers inches make sure that you have chosen a model that states this.

 

Models of the Mitutoyo Series 500 are available in sizes that range from 0-4in 0-100mm, 0-6in 0-150mm, 0-8in 0-200mm, 0-12in 0-300mm, 0-18in 0-450mm, 0-24in 0-600mm and finally the massive 0-40in 0-1000mm.

 

The number of digital calipers available in the series 500 range is truly impressive and a good proportion of the models come with carbide tipped jaws for added strength and accuracy.

 

The battery required for the series 500 caliper is an SR44, 938882 and according to the company’s specifications sheet this battery would have an expected life in this type of caliper of around 3.5 years under normal use.

 

A Mitutoyo digital caliper is a tool that will give you reliable service over a long period of time. This is a tool that has been precision made with a lot of thought gone into the features that any craftsman might want in a tool.
