Measure Beyond the Standard Jaw: Browse Caliper Gage Accessories at Penn Tool Co.
A standard caliper handles routine dimensional checks but recessed features, extended surfaces, and specialized measurement points often require additional reach and flexibility.
Penn Tool Co. supplies dependable caliper accessories that help machinists, inspectors, and quality teams adapt their existing measuring equipment for demanding inspection applications.
Since 1968, we have equipped machine shops, toolrooms, and inspection facilities across the USA with precision measurement solutions built for reliable performance in professional environments.
Complete Coverage for Every Caliper Measurement Task
Our selection covers the attachments and specialized components needed to expand the measuring capabilities of standard calipers. For teams handling varied inspection requirements, a caliper accessory kit provides multiple components in a convenient setup, helping technicians move between applications without searching for individual attachments.
For specialized jaw configurations, the Mitutoyo Digimatic Carbon Fiber Calipers, Series 552 with Optional Jaw Attachments provide an adaptable solution. The series supports optional centerline attachments, pointed ID measuring attachments, and attachment clamps, allowing users to configure the caliper for different measurement requirements.
When standard jaws cannot properly engage unusual workpiece features, caliper jaw attachments provide alternative configurations for specialized dimensional checks. For depth measurements across holes, slots, steps, and recessed surfaces, a caliper depth base creates a broader reference area that can improve stability during measurement.
For larger or deeper components, a caliper extender provides additional reach without requiring technicians to purchase a separate dedicated instrument. The Mitutoyo Series 552 also includes models ranging from 18-inch and 24-inch capacities to 40-inch, 60-inch, and 80-inch versions, giving inspection teams options for oversized components.
Centerline-related measurements can benefit from a caliper centerline gage, while caliper jaw extensions help reach measurement points beyond standard jaw capacity. For specialized surfaces and geometries, caliper contact points provide additional ways to establish suitable contact between the measuring instrument and workpiece.
