Mitutoyo 103-218 Outside Micrometer, Baked-enamel Finish, Ratchet Stop, 3-4" Range, 0.0001" Graduation, +/-0.00015" Accuracy

Description

The Mitutoyo 103 series outside micrometer has a vernier scale in inch units
for taking precise outside diameter (OD) measurements, and a ratchet-stop
mechanism for uniform pressure during adjustment. The micrometer’s frame has a
baked enamel finish for protection and durability. The vernier scale on the
thimble and sleeve is graduated to 0.001”, with a satin chrome rust- and
glare-resistant finish. The spindle and anvil have flat measuring faces and
are carbide-tipped for wear resistance. A spindle lock helps provide secure
locking of the measurement position.Micrometers are precision measuring
instruments that use a calibrated screw to measure small distances. These
measurements are translated into large rotations of the screw that are then
able to be read from a scale or a dial. Micrometers are typically used in
manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering. There are three types of
micrometer: outside, inside, and depth. Outside micrometers may also be called
micrometer calipers, and are used to measure the length, width, or outside
diameter of an object. Inside micrometers are typically used to measure
interior diameter, as in a hole. Depth micrometers measure the height, or
depth, of any shape that has a step, groove, or slot.Mitutoyo manufactures
precision measuring tools, metrology equipment, and systems. The company was
founded in Tokyo in 1934 and formed Mitutoyo America Corporation in 1963,
which is headquartered in Aurora, IL.
