Starrett 786MEP-100 LCD Blade-Type Micrometre, Non-Rotating Spindle, Plain Thimble, 75-100mm Range, 0.001mm Graduation

The Starrett 786MEP series blade-type outside micrometre has a digital single-value LCD readout that displays in inch and metric units with resolution to 0.00005” (0.001mm) for outside diameter (OD) measurement, and a blade anvil and spindle for measurement of groove diameter of shafts and keyways. It also has a Vernier scale in metric units for taking precise outside diameter (OD) measurements, and Statistical Process Control (SPC) data output to transmit results to a computer or external device. The output jack transmits SPC results to a computer through an interface cable (sold separately). The micrometre's electronic microprocessor can preset, hold, or limit measurement at any position, as well as set a temporary zero position and return to a true zero reading. An automatic off function helps preserve battery life when the unit is not in use. The spindle does not rotate during adjustment, to help provide steady positioning for measurement. The frame is made of high-grade tool steel and has a black wrinkle finish that helps reduce glare. A speeder helps provide quick adjustment capability. The Vernier scale on the thimble and sleeve has a satin chrome rust- and glare-resistant finish. The spindle and anvil are made of hardened steel for durability. The micrometre includes, and is powered by, a single CR2032 lithium cell battery.
