About Brown & Sharpe

The Brown & Sharpe catalogue incorporates a wide range of hand tools, optical measuring systems, coordinate measuring machines and 1D, 2D & 3D benchtop measuring machines. Brown & Sharpe dial calipers measure the inside diameter (ID), outside diameter (OD), depth and steps of a workpiece; ideal for use in metalworking, architecture and machinery. These units feature a 1.25-inch rotating dial with an accuracy of 0.100 inches per revolution for precise measurement. They have a knurled lock for locking the dial and holding the sliding jaw in position and are further integrated with a covered rack that protects the gear from ingress of foreign matter, preventing measurement errors. Choose from a broad range of these calipers and other tools, such as micrometers, gauges and dial indicators on Raptor Supplies.
