This review is from: Fowler 72-058-016 6" / 150 mm Vernier Mechanical Caliper (Automotive)
These calipers are generally well built. The sliding jaw has a good fit to its shaft. The calipers have a good heft to them.
However, there are a couple of surprising shortcomings to their fundamental purpose as a measuring device. 1st, with the caliper jaws closed together, the vernier scales on not at zero. The vernier shows a reading of about 0.003". There is no way to adjust the scale to the body. Although you can adjust your measurement by this offset, it is a deficiency for something advertised as having "extreme accuracy". Second, there are three adjustment screws that lock the moving jaw to the shaft or provide fine adjustment of the jaw along the shaft. The design is good, but the screws do not move smoothly. They alternately bind badly and move freely. Either the threads on the screws or the tapped threads are poorly manufactured. Info not included in the provided description: these are made in China. The supplied case is adequate but very large for the calipers.
