Mitutoyo 550-223-10 Electronic Caliper 0-18 in

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 550-223-10 is a large-range electronic caliper from the 550 ABSOLUTE Digimatic series, designed for precise inside and outside diameter measurements across a full 0 to 18 inch (450 mm) range. It delivers a resolution of 0.0005 inches and an accuracy of 0.0020 inches, making it suitable for demanding inspection and layout tasks in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and field measurement applications. The caliper body and jaws are constructed from hardened stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance. Data output capability allows readings to be transmitted directly to a compatible data collection system, reducing transcription error and supporting quality documentation workflows. Licensed metrology professionals and precision machinists are the primary users of this instrument.

This caliper is well suited for inside and outside diameter measurement tasks where a standard 6 or 12 inch caliper falls short. The angled nib-style jaws support inside diameter measurements starting at a minimum of 0.5040 inches (20.10 mm) up to the full 18 inch capacity. It operates on a single SR44 silver oxide battery, which is included. A protective case is also included for storage and transport. The 550 ABSOLUTE Digimatic series is commonly used in manufacturing quality control, toolroom inspection, and precision layout work in both residential and commercial fabrication environments.

Installation Notes

This instrument is handled and operated by machinists, metrologists, and quality technicians rather than installed in a system. Before use, ensure the jaws are fully closed and the zero function is set according to the manufacturer calibration procedure. Keep the measuring faces clean and free of debris to maintain accuracy. Do not expose the unit to cutting fluids, solvents, or impacts that could affect the electronic components or jaw alignment.
