The Starrett 798A-6/150 heavy-duty digital calliper measures 0 to 6 inches and 0 to 150 mm with 0.0005” or 0.010 mm accuracy, is IP67 rated for dust, water, and oil protection, and comes in a protective plastic case. This calliper has a 3.5 mm thick bar for long life. The calliper can be used with one hand through operating the fine adjustment roll with the thumb. A lock screw can hold the slide in position. Depth rod is integrated into the rack of the calliper, unlike many callipers which offer a detachable depth rod, or none at all. The hardened stainless steel body offers corrosion resistance and long life. Single battery is accessible, on the front of the plastic casing, next to the LCD. The last measurement position is retained when the calliper is shut off, and it is simple to zero the calliper at any position with the clearly marked zero button. The display reactivates when the slide is moved, without losing position. The LCD is large and easy to read with 0.31” characters. The linear encoder system is induction-type. The calliper shuts off automatically after thirty minutes of nonuse. Linear accuracy meets the internationally used Deutsches Institute fur Normung (DIN) 862: Vernier Callipers Requirements and Testing standards. Approximate jaw depth for the outside measuring jaws is 1-1/2” (38mm) while the jaw depth for the inside measuring jaws is 5/8” (16 mm).
