It covers a 6-inch measurement range with a dial graduation of 0.001 inches and an accuracy of 0.001 inches, making it suitable for work where tight tolerances matter. The dial face is black with a gray dial case, providing strong contrast for fast, reliable readings. The sliding jaw adjustment allows smooth travel across the full range, and the 1-9\/16-inch jaw length accommodates a wide variety of workpiece geometries. This caliper ships in a fitted plastic case for storage and transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 505-742-56J is used in fabrication shops, HVAC equipment manufacturing, plumbing component inspection, and general mechanical service work where outside, inside, depth, and step measurements are all required from a single instrument. It is appropriate for any trade professional or technician who needs a calibrated, inspection-certified caliper for layout, verification, or quality checks on components and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch measurement range with 0.001-inch dial graduation for high-resolution readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccuracy rated at 0.001 inches, proprietary inspection certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasures outside, inside, depth, and step dimensions in one tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull stainless steel construction on body, jaws, and frame for corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack dial face on gray case for clear contrast in varying light conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.1-inch travel per dial revolution for easy reading without losing count of full rotations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied in a fitted plastic case for organized storage and field transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose dial caliper for trade and industrial measurement applications requiring a 6-inch range with 0.001-inch resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis caliper is a precision measuring instrument and does not require installation in the traditional sense. Before use, verify the jaws close to zero and adjust the dial bezel if needed to zero the reading. Keep the instrument clean and dry, and avoid dropping or storing it under load, as impact or pressure can affect calibration accuracy. Periodic verification against a calibrated standard is recommended for inspection-grade work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Graduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRange Per Revolution\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-9\/16 inches (40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Types\u003c\/strong\u003e: Outside, Inside, Depth, Step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Face Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Case Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Adjustment Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sliding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fitted Plastic Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Proprietary Inspection Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MITUTOYO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 505-742-56J\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MITUTOYO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51561580003634,"sku":"505-742-56J","price":165.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6e8bf7fd0e7641d7780be4753a571ab8.jpg?v=1786465944","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mitutoyo-505-742-56j-dial-caliper-6-inch-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
