Mitutoyo 1-2 Outside Micrometer, 0.001 Graduation, +/-0.0001 Accuracy

The Mitutoyo 103 series outside micrometer is designed to deliver precise outside diameter (OD) measurements. It features a vernier scale in inch units, allowing for accurate readings. Additionally, the micrometer is equipped with a ratchet-stop mechanism, which helps maintain uniform pressure during adjustments, ensuring repeatable and reliable measurements.

The micrometer's frame boasts a durable baked enamel finish, providing protection and enhancing its longevity. The vernier scale on the thimble and sleeve is graduated to 0.001 inches, with a satin chrome finish that resists rust and reduces glare, further improving the reading experience.

The spindle and anvil of the micrometer have flat measuring faces, and they are tipped with carbide for increased wear resistance. This ensures the micrometer maintains its accuracy over extended use. A spindle lock is also included, allowing users to securely lock the measurement position.

Micrometers are precision measuring instruments that utilize a calibrated screw to measure small distances. These measurements are then translated into large rotations of the screw, which can be read from a scale or a dial. Micrometers are widely used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering.

There are three main types of micrometers: outside, inside, and depth. Outside micrometers, also known as micrometer calipers, are used to measure the length, width, or outside diameter of an object. Inside micrometers are typically employed to measure the interior diameter of a hole, while depth micrometers are used to measure the height or depth of any shape with a step, groove, or slot.

Mitutoyo, a renowned manufacturer of precision measuring tools, metrology equipment, and systems, was founded in Tokyo in 1934. The company established Mitutoyo America Corporation in 1963, which is headquartered in Aurora, Illinois.
