It delivers a resolution of 0.0005 inches and an accuracy of 0.001 inches across a full measurement range of 0 to 6 inches (0 to 150 mm). The stainless steel body and hardened stainless steel jaws are rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, making this caliper suitable for use in demanding shop floor conditions. It includes data output capability for direct connection to SPC data collection systems, a depth measurement rod, and inside diameter jaws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 500-178-30 supports four measurement modes: outside diameter, inside diameter, depth, and step measurements. The knife-edge jaw style allows access to narrow grooves and recessed features. A thumb wheel provides smooth, controlled jaw adjustment. This caliper is used by machinists, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, quality control inspectors, and other trade professionals who require verified dimensional data on parts, fittings, and assemblies. The included hard case and battery make it ready to use out of the box. It is appropriate for both shop and field measurement applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0005 inch resolution with 0.001 inch accuracy over a 0 to 6 inch range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67-rated stainless steel body and hardened stainless steel jaws resist dust, coolant, and water ingress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnife-edge jaw style for measuring narrow slots, grooves, and recessed features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eData output port for SPC and digital measurement system integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes depth rod and inside diameter jaws for four-mode measurement capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered by a single SR44 silver oxide battery included in the package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use as a general-purpose precision measuring instrument in any application requiring outside diameter, inside diameter, depth, or step measurement up to 6 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo installation is required for this instrument. Before use, verify the caliper zeroes correctly at the closed position and that the battery is properly seated.
