Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Most of my tools are mitutoyo and while this obviously lacks that quality feel, it works good and costs far less. Great depth gauge for us home machinists. Maybe for every machinist. Can say we used every extension with no issues.



Cons

Flat end should be zeroed the same way the ball end is. Since it has a thickness, the zero is off by whatever that thickness is. Clear and obvious machining flaws in the simple parts that are making it past qc.

    Others have written that their battery was dead upon arrival having to install the second battery supplied

    Apparently the folks at igaging have read the comments and made the necessary changes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When i received mine both batteries were separate from the indicator so that there was no possible way for them to discharge while in storage and transit


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I hate using and reading regular depth gauges and usually would use a digital caliper to take a quick measurement of the rod instead of reading the instrument


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The unit also has a hold button that allows for the reading to remain static unchanged until the next reading is made


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Does ok for me but im not a machinist


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So it invariably has a dead battery


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The fix is to cut out the foam insert in the lid so that there is no foam where the buttons are located
