quality issues with new electronic bore gage - understand this tool has been issued for 4-5 years ongoing
1) central moving rod in the main tube hiusing does not line up with outer housing by a distance of the diameter of the rod. Meaning the gage head, when inserted will not squarely hit the rod.
2) no instructions on how the gage is to be assembled, altho you would think this would be easily understandable, you will find specialty pieces that need exacting use. i will guess many will never notice!
3) no invemtory list to be sure you have all that is expected.
4) corrosion prior to plating of tiny pieces - absolutely stupid!
5)the storage case does not allow small head to be attached, so you must disassemble from small mode back to large mode when simply putting it back in the case.
Understand this tool has been issued this way for 4 years or better.
6) My gage was recieved with plastic face pre scratched , so it matched the over all quality.
the general feel of the tool is that it is a second or reject from somone else that is simply being sold thru Amazon as a quick way of dumpmng it!
