Mitutoyo Silver Screw Clamp Type Micrometer Head

The Mitutoyo MHT1-6.5LCA Screw Clamp Type Micrometer Head 0-6.5 mm Measuring Range 15426515 is a specialized measuring device utilized for obtaining highly accurate linear measurements. It is widely employed in precision engineering, manufacturing, and research applications where fine measurement resolution is essential. This micrometer head is often integrated into various measurement setups and instruments, further enhancing their precision capabilities. The screw clamp type micrometer head features a robust construction with a threaded spindle that moves linearly within the head's housing. A precision-ground anvil is typically mounted at the end of the spindle. To take a measurement, the micrometer head is clamped onto the object being measured, and the spindle is then advanced or retracted by rotating the head's thimble. The key advantage of the screw clamp design is its secure and stable clamping mechanism, ensuring a consistent and reliable measurement environment. This feature minimizes any potential movement or play during the measurement process, resulting in highly accurate and repeatable readings. The micrometer head is often calibrated with a high resolution, enabling it to measure with exceptional precision down to sub-micrometer levels. Moreover, some models may incorporate a digital readout, providing users with quick and easy-to-read measurements, further reducing the potential for human error. Proper care and maintenance are crucial to preserve the accuracy and longevity of the screw clamp type micrometer head. Regular cleaning of the measuring surfaces, appropriate storage, and periodic calibration against traceable standards are fundamental practices to ensure measurement integrity.
