Made in Japan! - Yes, it is made in Japan! I know a few reviews say theirs were made in Brazil, but not mine! Maybe there was a time when they might have been? I didn't see anyone post any picture showing theirs made in Brazil, so who knows.. I do know that the Japanese have fine craftsmanship and when I can't find the item I want with the good ol "Made in the USA" on it, I look for the next best "Made in Japan". Not saying Japan is second rate or anything. As an American, I have the utmost respect for the Japanese people and their country. I just prefer to support my homeland. But when I can't because we've outsourced every other thing to mostly China, I can count on Japan to feed my need. You can just feel the quality of this micrometer in your hands. The certificate even named some of the workers over there in their facitlity. So professional. 🀌 Fully opened it up and closed it. It zerod out as should. Used it to measure some plumbing to figure out what size shutoff valves to buy. Measured perfectly. Closed it back up and it wasn't zerod. I opened it back up and cleaned the jaws because my copper pipes have a bit of corrosion. That did the trick. It zerod back out. The hint of corrosion left on the jaws measured about 0.003 lol. Also a heads up! The paper in the plastic bag with the micrometer is poisonous! It's meant to keep corrosion away while it's packaged. There is a warning in the box about it. Just throw it away, wipe your micrometer with some rubbing alcohol, and wash your hands.

It just states that the tool was good when it left the factory. If you are needing a specific time frame "certification" with additional information you would have to purchase the item w/ a long form certification. **Q: do you sell replacement lenses** A: We do not offer replacement parts on any e-commerce sites. **Q: Is this made of stainless?** A: According to my husband, who actually uses it, yes. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality Micrometer!

It is easy to interpolate by eye to 0.0005" (five ten thousandths) and probably to 0.00025" (25 one hundred thousandths). I am very pleased and used these to identify a ten thousandths error in a recently purchased replacement part. I love the dial readout. It is much easier to read than a vernier scale. I prefer the dial to electronic readout since there is no battery to go dead while the tool sits in my tool drawer. This is the perfect choice for users that only occasionally make measurements with this level of precision. Be sure to read and follow the card in the plastic envelope: wipe the calipers down with a lightly oiled rag to remove the shipping preservative. It will slide much more smoothly that way. Just buy it! The quality is a joy to use. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mitutoyo 505-742J Dial Caliper, 0.1" per Rev, 0-6" Range, 0.001" Accuracy - Mitutoyo 505-746 Dial Caliper.001" Graduation, 0.1" per Revolution, 0-12" Range, 0.002" Accuracy, White Face - Mitutoyo 513-402-10E DIAL TI, BAS, STD 0.03", 0.0002" Accuracy, 0.0005", White --- ## 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.com.cy/products/23883175-mitutoyo-505-742j-dial-caliper-0-1-per-rev-0](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/23883175-mitutoyo-505-742j-dial-caliper-0-1-per-rev-0) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-09-01*
