CALIPERS AND DIVIDERS ARE NOT ALL THE SAME

- Engineering Supplies

Calipers and dividers may look similar but there are many
<div class=”MsoNormal”>differences between brands.<span style=”mso-spacerun: yes;”>  </span></div>
<div class=”MsoNormal”>To get good quality at a fair price check the following
features for wing dividers, spring dividers, and firm joint and spring
calipers.</div>
