General 14712 Electronic Digital Caliper 12 Inch

Product Description

The GENERAL 14712 is a stainless steel electronic digital caliper designed for precision dimensional measurement in trade and industrial applications. With a maximum measurement range of 12 inches (305 mm), a resolution of 0.016 inches, and an accuracy of 0.001 inches, it delivers reliable readings across four measurement modes: outside diameter, inside diameter, depth, and step. The stainless steel body and knife-edge jaws hold up in shop environments. Jaw adjustment is handled by a thumb wheel for fine, controlled positioning. Power comes from an included SR44 silver oxide battery.

This caliper is suited for HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, machinists, and maintenance trades who need accurate field or bench measurements of pipe diameters, fittings, component dimensions, and step depths. The inside diameter jaws and depth rod extend its usefulness across a wide range of measurement tasks without switching tools. It ships with a protective case and battery, ready for immediate use on the job or in the shop. The Fraction+ series designation indicates compatibility with fractional readout capability in addition to decimal inch and millimeter modes.
