When you talk about the need for accuracy, there will be at least two schools of thought. Some feel that the high-precision accuracy of digital measuring tools is not necessary while others like to know what is happening down to 0.001” or less if at all possible. The folks at
iGaging
offer products that make high-level accuracy easier than ever. The
Snap Depth
Gauge
is a perfect example.
Snap Depth
Gauge
come with a CR2032 battery factory installed and a spare in the package. It has a large, easy-to-read LCD display that make life a little easier for those with older eyes. It has accuracy down to 0.001” and resolution down to 0.0005”/0.01mm or 1/128”. This should be precise for most of us, though some will undoubtedly think we are bordering on rocket science.
Other common sense user-friendly functions found on the
Snap Depth
Gauge
are clearly labeled ON/OFF, Zero and Unit Selection buttons. Zero is a useful function that lets you reset zero at any point within the overall range of measurement. The Unit Selection button lets you select between metric, plain numeric and fractional displays of the measurements. The Hold function lets you take a measurement, hit the Hold button and that figure is retained on the display. This comes in very handy when you can’t see the display well while taking the reading or you want to remember the measurement at a later time.
After viewing the retained dimension you simply press Hold again to cancel that function out.
The
Snap Depth Gauge
has a measuring range of 0 to 4” which should cover measuring tasks you normally encounter. The
Snap Depth Gauge
also
comes with 1” and 2”-long, screw-on plunger extensions to let you most appropriate length shaft for the job.
To use the
Snap Depth Gauge
hold it with the base firmly in contact with a flat surface and press the Zero button. Then slide it over the hole, groove or ledge so the plunger can go to the bottom and read the display. While the plunger is still at the bottom of the spot being measured you can also press the Hold function to retain that measurement if the display is difficult to see.
The
Snap Depth Gauge
also has a mounting lug on its back side that allows it to be used like a dial indicator. Just bolt it to a suitable base (shop made or commercial) and use it like any dial indicator. In this mode the
Snap Depth
Gauge
can be handy for checking runout on tooling and many other shop needs.
If you are a fan of high precision measuring instruments the
Snap Depth Gauge
should be of interest. It is a very accurate measuring device, repeats well and is very easy to use. I can’t think of much more to ask from measuring tools.

My E-Bay philosophy is simple, you are the customer and you decide how you want to handle the deal. I will go along with most anything as long as it is not too outrageous and you keep me informed. If it will be a few days before you get payment to me, no problem, just let me know so I will not worry about it being lost. I do not have any hard and fast time lines on what happens when. I work very hard to get all packages to the Post Office the next day after I receive payment. If for some reason that will be delayed, I will let you know.
All my items are shipped either USPS 1st class or Priority shipping.  I will ship another method to get it to you faster as long as you and are willing to pay for the faster shipping.
You decide how you want to pay and I will usually go along with it. So far all (well, most) of my dealings have been with nice, honest people. (As I would expect) .
I do ship worldwide. Please use the shipping calculator to determine shipping to your location. I ship all items 1st class international, which can sometimes take 30 days to arrive. Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying.
My satisfaction policy is also very simple, you are the customer and you decide if you want the item. Satisfaction is guaranteed, no exceptions. Purchase may be returned for any reason or no reason within 30 days in original condition for a full refund.

I still accept returns except you will need to pay the postage.
