Search for Micrometers by specification

Mechanical micrometers are instruments for precision dimensional gaging consisting of a ground spindle and anvil mounted in a C-shaped steel frame.  Noncontact laser micrometers are also available. Mechanical micrometers are available in Vernier scale, digital and dial variations. Micrometers provide precise, quantitative measurements of a product's or component's attributes such as thickness, depth, height, length, I.D., O.D., roundness or bore.  Specialized micrometers are available for the measurement of threads, gear teeth and tube wall thickness.  Laser micrometers are especially effective in inline gaging applications of high speed materials.


Products & Services Related to Micrometers
Bore and ID Gages
Bore and ID gages are designed for internal diameter dimensional measurement or assessment.
Calipers
Calipers typically use a precise slide movement for inside, outside, depth or step measurements. Some caliper types are used for comparing or transferring dimensions.
Depth Gages
Depth gages are used to measure of the depth of holes, cavities, or other component features.
Gage Blocks
Gage blocks are manufactured to precise gagemaker tolerance grades for calibrating, checking, and setting fixed and comparative gages.
Height Gages
Height gages are used for measuring the height of components or product features.
Indicators and Comparators
Indicators and comparators measure where the linear movement of a precision spindle or probe is amplified.
Snap Gages
Snap gages are used in production settings where specific diametrical or thickness measurements must be repeated frequently with precision and accuracy.
