I've purchased other Fowler measuring tools and have been happy with them for my occasional needs. Review: Repeatable - Bought this and their 2"-3".. Very repeatable and they match each other on a 2" test pin. Not super fine adjustment but those can be couple hundred each. Great mics for the cost. Just screw them all the way out first and clean male and female threads, lube and put back together. Tiny bit of grit on them as shipped, no big deal and something your should do regularly anyway. ## Features - Micrometer Screw Gauge: With flat anvil/spindle pair for general purpose measuring; microfine graduations and carbide-tipped measuring faces; 0.001" graduation and Β± 0.001" accuracy for precise readings - Accurate Measurements: Anvil and spindle hardened and precision-ground with microlap finish on tips; 0.256" diameter of measuring faces, 0.00003" flatness, and 0.00008" parallelism on 3-4" micrometers for accurate measurements - Easy to Use: Quick, easy zero adjustment on the sleeve and positive lever locking clamp; friction thimble with ratchet stop applies constant force for repeatability between users - Satin Chrome Finish: Vernier scale with hammertone blue baked-enamel frame with heat-insulated frames; the finishing on the thimble and sleeve helps reduce rust and glare, while the lapped spindle thread provides smooth movement, extending product life - Set Includes: An outside micrometer with a vernier scale of 0.001", a wrench, and a fitted case ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Manufacturer | Fred V.

I've purchased other Fowler measuring tools and have been happy with them for my occasional needs. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Repeatable *by G***E on 4 June 2020* Bought this and their 2"-3".. Very repeatable and they match each other on a 2" test pin. Not super fine adjustment but those can be couple hundred each. Great mics for the cost. Just screw them all the way out first and clean male and female threads, lube and put back together. Tiny bit of grit on them as shipped, no big deal and something your should do regularly anyway. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Accurate *by D***U on 12 January 2022* Seems very well made. Initial adjustment easy with measuring guage piece provided in the kit and reading the instructions. Comes with a nice overpack sleeve on the plastic case. Used to check new 4 inch pistons .40 over for blueprinting purposes against my bore guage readings, ie. squirt clearance. Fowler is a good rep. name, I do recommend for serious DIY Ford engine builds at a real good value for the cost. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fowler 52-253-004-1, Premium Outside Inch Micrometer With 3-4" Measuring Range - Fowler 52-240-005-1, Outside Inch Micrometer With 4-5" Measuring Range, Factory --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/224743493-fowler-52-253-004-1-premium-outside-inch-micrometer-3](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/224743493-fowler-52-253-004-1-premium-outside-inch-micrometer-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-04*
