Sattiyrch Digital Caliper Stainless Steel with Large LCD Screen 8 Inch Millimeter Fractions Conversion Electronic Vernier Caliper Measuring Tool (8 inch)

I bought these calipers to mount on my old Bridgeport mill on the Z axis. Had another Bridgeport with a inexpensive caliper mounted on Z axis, worked great.While waiting to do that install I'm using these calipers for general measurements and they are OK. Action is not as smooth as I would like but the cost of these make up for that. I thread the hole in the Bridgeport quill. Thread in a hex setscrew then drill and thread that for 10/32 taper head Allen screw.Make a bracket for the bottom mount and use 10/32 alien head tapered screws to hold the caliper in place top and bottom. Last cut off or shorten the caliper jaws as needed.With this setup getting exact depth is easy as you can zero out the caliper anywhere then measure depth as needed for drills or end mills. 6" caliper is perfect size for this.

I use this caliper for both machine work and wood working. My ancient dial caliper (45 years old) suffered a terrible tragedy when it accidentally fell on the floor rendering it unconcious. I like this one a lot more. I do some lathe work and it is nice to have a caliper that can be set to a zero so that with one measurement I know how much more to remove. The display is easy to read. I work in both metric and imperial so this is really handy too. I am happy with it and think it is a great deal for the $$$. All stainless steel, not plastic. Well, the read head is in a plastic body, but the rest is SS.

I bought this caliper to avoid scratching expensive wristwatches and fragile parts made of soft materials. It's virtually a replica of my steel digital caliper, except that it has no lock screw to keep the movable jaw from sliding after the reading has been taken. Understandable though, because a lock screw would likely mar the surface of the slide. The pictures show a display with two digits to the right of the decimal point when the metric scale is used, and those digits are smaller than the ones to the left. But the actual item has only one digit to the right (as the text on the listing describes). The inch scale does have two digits to the right of the decimal, though they're the same size as to the left. So resolution in metric mode is a bit lacking, but accuracy in both modes is excellent. The display is pretty large and easy to read compared to most steel calipers I've seen, but be aware that the display turns on automatically with the slightest movement of the movable jaw - it can happen accidentally. And the screen timeout is about three minutes, so be sure to turn it off manually to prevent battery drain.I've tried several other plastic calipers recently, but I haven't found any with even half the quality of this one. So I'm happy to deal with its warts, especially at the super low price.

seems to be accurate. worked well

I can't give an honest and accurate review in just one week of ownership but I can surely say that it's not bad for the price. What's to say, it works, it's accurate and easy to read. The main thing for how long it would stay this way. It came with two additional batteries.

Awesome calipers for the price! Not super sturdy of course, but for what I needed, and the price, it was perfect. Easy to use.

This product precision, composition, light weight plus ease to modify (cut) for my DRO (Digital Readou) need was perfect. My need was DRO's (digital readout), on my Sherline lathes and mill they were perfect!! I use thes DRO's to get me close to the measurement I require then use the graduated scale on the feed handles for the exact measurement. I recommend this vendor (I've ordered from them twice), and this product IF you can work with .010".

Overall this is an okay product, it measures items as expected and for my purposes I would say it is accurate.I don't have another set of calipers to compare it to. The negative of this particular item is that the way I hold this in my hand, the battery cover keeps popping off. I wish it was more firmly attached, or located somewhere else. This is annoying enough that I could only give it 3 stars overall.
