## Description

Product description

Review: Excellent caliper for the money!!! - Best caliper I've ever bought for this price and then some, hands down! You panty-waste talkers need to stop talking trash and RTFM. If you have a defective unit (and it happens) contact the seller or manufacturer and work it out. If you just can't read or fathom reading instructions, then send it back and keep using your thumbs, toes, arms and feet. I grew up in a shop environment and am very familiar with these types of tools. This caliper hands down is as accurate and precise as advertised. Mine in particular is highly accurate as I used my precision blocks (which are perfect btw) and could NOT find a single flaw or off measurement. As GadgetClass and David Andrews amongst others have noted, I also tested "numerous" items top to bottom in the jaw and the accuracy is stunningly accurate! At this price you can't buy another brand caliper this accurate for the money anywhere I know of. I had a small box of 6" calipers (some more expensive than this one) that I just tossed out because this iGaging caliper is that good! I will certainly be buying more iGaging brand items if this is any indication of the quality and craftsmanship they offer. Unless you work for NASA and the like, this caliper will accurately measure anything you need it too. And I'd bet NASA has a good number of projects this will suit just perfectly fine as well. Mine goes back to "0" "EVERY" TIME! I don't have to slam it or repeatedly go back and forth to get it too zero out. The locking thumb screw is a plus and holds the precise measurement in place very well. The fit and finish are top shelf! Depth gauge is just as accurate along with the perfectly machined depth gauge base. If you can read and understand what you have here and how to use it, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended for home and business shops. The perfect all-around caliper for high quality general precision work. As Mikey said, "Try it! You'll like it!" ;-) Move over Mitutoyo!!! There's a new kid on the block, ...and he's giving you some stiff competition for the money!
Review: Great budget digital caliper - I have several of these in my garage by the lathe and in my reloading room. Good quality digital caliber, especially for the price. Will wirelessly connect to your computer for working in spreadsheets,etc.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: where it is manufactured**
A: China (People’s Republic Of China)

**Q: Mine keeps indicating 10 mm as 2.20mm. Is there some kind of an internal reset, or should it be replaced.**
A: I checked my iGauging Absolute with a .1275in metal blank and it measured 3.24mm correctly.  Since the iGauging is similar to the Mitutoyo their instructions say to remove the battery, re-insert it, move the jaws together and hold down Origin for one second and zero point should be reset.  Other than that, make sure of the 0/ABS switch is correctly set.  If it is still bad, I would return it.

**Q: Does it come with a case?**
A: Mine did, yes. It came with a simple black plastic case. Nothing special, but it gets the job done and protects the caliper well.

**Q: does the fractions model do both fractions and decimals?  Or is it just fractions?**
A: There are 2 models of the 6 inch caliper.  Be sure to get the model that says WITH fractions, and it will have that feature.  The model with fractions will read in 3 modes. Inches in decimals, mm in decimals, and inches in fractions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great budget digital caliper

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Extremely Accurate, Solid Build, and Perfect for 3D Printing Work
*by D***E on January 11, 2026*

The iGAGING Absolute Origin 0–6" Digital Caliper has quickly become one of my most reliable tools. The accuracy is spot‑on, and the measurements stay consistent thanks to the absolute origin feature — no constant zeroing like cheaper calipers. The stainless steel construction feels sturdy and smooth, and the slide action is precise without any wobble. The IP54 rating is a nice bonus, keeping dust and splashes from interfering with the electronics. I also love the SPC/USB output port, which makes it easy to log measurements directly into software when I’m working on detailed projects. Switching between inch, metric, and fractional modes is quick and intuitive. For anyone doing 3D printing, woodworking, machining, or detailed hobby work, this caliper is a fantastic upgrade. It’s accurate, durable, and feels like a professional‑grade tool at a great price. Now I just need to learn how to use my CAD software to be able to create more projects for me to 3D print. Made a few projects and this Caliper really helped making project simpler. And everything fit perfect because of the accurate measurements.
