Mitutoyo 114-163 3 Flute V-Anvil Micrometer, 0.05 to 0.6”

Description

The Mitutoyo 114-163 is a 3-flute V-anvil micrometer used for measuring the outside diameter of cutting tools with three flutes, such as taps, reamers, and end mills. Its unique V-shaped anvil enables stable, three-point contact for accurate measurements on parts that cannot be measured with a standard micrometer.
Product features

Key features

• V-anvil design: The tool's defining feature is its 60-degree V-shaped anvil, which makes three points of contact on an object. This is essential for precisely measuring the outside diameter of three-flute cutting tools, such as taps, reamers, and end mills, which cannot be accurately measured with a standard micrometer.
• Accuracy and resolution:  It has an inch-based vernier scale for fine and precise readings. The graduation is 0.001 inches, and it has an accuracy of ±0.0002 inches.
• Ratchet stop: A built-in ratchet mechanism provides a consistent and repeatable measuring force on the workpiece. It audibly clicks to ensure that the correct pressure has been applied.
• Durable construction: The spindle and anvil are carbide-tipped for superior wear resistance and extended tool life. The frame has a baked enamel finish for durability.
• Easy to read: The sleeve and thimble have a satin chrome finish to reduce glare and improve readability.
• Protective case: A fitted plastic case is included to protect the micrometer during storage and transport.
• Setting standard: A 0.200-inch setting standard comes with the micrometer for calibration.
