It is made of flat stock, high-grade steel, for easily reproducible and accurate transfer of measurements of the external size of an object. This calliper has flat, inward curving legs for outside measurements and comes with a solid nut. Bow spring is flexible yet strong, for reliability. The durable legs are made of flat stock, high-grade steel for long life. The centrally located adjustment rod ensures smooth action when opening and closing the calliper.
