Need reliable, precise external measurements for your workshop projects? These Moore & Wright spring joint external calipers are a classic tool that's stood the test of time. With a 100mm (that's 4 inches for those who prefer imperial) measuring capacity, they're perfect for quick, accurate checks of external dimensions on everything from metalwork to woodworking projects.
The spring joint design keeps consistent tension on the legs, so you get repeatable measurements without having to readjust constantly. They're made from quality steel with smooth-action joints that move easily but stay put where you set them. The fine points let you get into tight spaces and mark precise locations.

They feel solid in your hand, the finish is smooth, and they maintain their accuracy through regular use. Perfect for machinists, engineers, woodworkers, or any DIY enthusiast who needs trustworthy measurements.
Use them for checking diameters of round stock, measuring thickness of materials, transferring dimensions between pieces, or setting up machinery. They're simple to use - just open them to fit over what you're measuring, then check the reading or transfer that measurement to your workpiece.
No batteries, no digital readouts that can fail - just solid mechanical measuring that works every time. Keep them in your toolbox for those moments when you need a quick check without dragging out the fancy digital gear. A fundamental tool that every serious maker should have on hand!
