Fowler FAQ
Are Fowler calipers made in the USA?
While Fowler is an American company based in Massachusetts, many of their products are sourced through global partnerships, including high-end tools made in Switzerland (Sylvac) and entry-to-mid-level tools manufactured in China.
How do I change the battery on a Fowler digital caliper?
Most Fowler digital models use a CR2032 or LR44 battery; you simply slide off the battery cover located near the LCD screen, pop out the old cell, and ensure the new one is inserted with the positive side facing up.
What does the IP67 rating on some Fowler models mean?
An IP67 rating indicates that the caliper is dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in water or coolant, which is essential if you are measuring parts directly inside a CNC machine.
How often should I calibrate my Fowler calipers?
For professional use, an annual calibration is standard; however, if you use them daily in a high-precision environment, checking them against a grade-certified gauge block once a month is a good practice to ensure accuracy.
Can Fowler digital calipers output data to a computer?
Yes, many models in the “Ultra-Cal” and “Euro-Cal” lines are equipped with proximity or USB data output ports, allowing you to send measurements directly to Excel or SPC software for quality control.
