STANDARD POINT MICROMETERS
PRECISION Thickness MEASURING
Mechanical Point Micrometers are precision measuring tools used to measure the diameter or thickness of small components with high accuracy. They are commonly used in the manufacturing, engineering, and scientific industries to ensure precise measurements of small parts.
A Mechanical Point Micrometer consists of a frame, a spindle, a thimble, and a pointed measuring contact. The spindle is movable and threaded and is used to measure the diameter or thickness of the small component. The pointed measuring contact is used to make contact with the surface of the component being measured.
The spindle is rotated using the thimble, which moves the spindle towards or away from the measuring contact, allowing the user to measure the diameter or thickness of the component. The measuring scale is located on the thimble and is used to read the measurement result. The scale typically has markings indicating the diameter or thickness being measured in micrometers or thousandths of an inch.
Mechanical Point Micrometers are available in various types and sizes, including outside micrometers, inside micrometers, and depth micrometers. They can be used to measure a wide range of small components, such as wires, tubes, and pins, making them a versatile tool for quality control and precision machining.
Overall, Mechanical Point Micrometers are highly precise and accurate measuring tools that are essential in many industries. They provide accurate measurements of the diameter or thickness of small components, making them a valuable tool for quality control and precision machining. The pointed measuring contact also ensures accurate measurements on small and narrow surfaces.
