Outside Micrometers with Counter – Precision External Measurement Tools
Outside micrometers with a counter are advanced measuring instruments designed for accurately measuring the external dimensions of shafts, rods, and other cylindrical components. These micrometers feature a mechanical or digital counter for direct, easy-to-read measurements, making them ideal for high-precision tasks in quality control, machining, and manufacturing environments.
Equipped with hardened steel frames, carbide-tipped measuring faces, and ratchet stop mechanisms, these micrometers ensure repeatable and reliable measurements even under continuous industrial use.
Key Features of Outside Micrometers with Counter
Built-in Mechanical or Digital Counter
For fast and direct measurement readings.
Carbide Measuring Faces
Wear-resistant and accurate for long-term precision.
Ratchet Stop or Friction Thimble
Ensures consistent measuring force for repeatability.
Rigid Frame Construction
Provides durability and stability during measurements.
 Applications of Outside Micrometers with Counter
- Machine Shops: Measuring shafts, pins, and machined parts.
- Quality Control Labs: Ensuring external tolerances of manufactured parts.
- Automotive Industry: Inspecting components like brake discs, pistons, and axles.
- Metalworking: Measuring thickness and diameter of fabricated materials.
- Educational Institutes: Practical tool for precision measurement training.
 How to Use Outside Micrometers with Counter
- Select the Right Size Range: Choose the micrometer suited to your measurement size.
- Zero the Micrometer: Calibrate using a gauge block or standard reference.
- Position the Micrometer: Place it on the part to be measured.
- Use the Ratchet/Friction Thimble: Gently rotate until the measuring faces contact the object.
- Read the Measurement: View the result directly from the counter (or the scale).
- Clean and Store: Wipe clean and keep in a protective case after use.
