Digital ABS AOS Caliper, OD Carb. Jaws

Mitutoyo Digital ABS AOS Caliper with OD Jaws

The Mitutoyo 500-165-30 is a high-quality digital caliper that combines the ABSOLUTE measuring system with an AOS inductive sensor, ensuring reliable and repeatable measurement results even in demanding working environments. This model features carbide-coated measuring faces for Outside Dimension (OD) measurement, enhancing the durability and service life of the caliper in measurements where the jaw faces come into contact with hard materials.

Key features

- Measuring range: 0–12″ and 0-300mm
- Resolution: 0.0005″ and 0.01mm
- ABSOLUTE measurement: no need to reset after power on; the instrument always recognizes the absolute position of the measuring head.
- AOS inductive sensor: accurate signal is not degraded on a dirty scale—for example, oil or dust will not affect the measurement result.
- LCD display: large and clear display facilitates reading in various lighting conditions.
- Ergonomics: the thumb wheel allows for smooth and comfortable operation of the sliding part.
- Long battery life: up to several years of normal use without battery replacement.

Why this model is a good choice

This caliper is specifically designed for Outside Dimension (OD) measurement, and its carbide-coated jaw faces make it a durable and long-lasting tool even for heavy-duty measurements. The carbide surface protects the measuring faces from wear and ensures smooth, accurate contact with the surface to be measured, which is especially important when measuring hard materials.

The ABSOLUTE measuring system eliminates the need to reset the caliper after each start-up, making measurements quicker and reducing the likelihood of errors. The AOS inductive sensor, on the other hand, ensures signal stability in the measurement response even when the scale is exposed to contaminants or moisture in the working environment.
