Robust construction Built from hardened alloy, this micrometer is wearresistant and rustproof, providing durability for demanding environments. Effortless operation The integrated ratchet stop mechanism ensures consistent force during measurements, helping deliver repeatable results. The ABS function allows easy reference point setting for quick, reliable measurements. Inch/metric conversion Quickly switch between metric and inch units with a simple button press, enabling flexibility for different applications, including pipe measurements. Applications and use scenarios Metalworking and machining: use for measuring the outside diameter of shafts, pins, and collars to verify tolerances during setup and inspection. Automotive service and component assembly: check fitments and clearances during or assembly where precise measurements are required. Plumbing and pipe fitting: determine pipe diameters and fittings in either metric or imperial units to ensure compatibility and proper assembly.
