It covers a measurement range up to 5 inches with a graduation of 0.0001 inches and an accuracy of 0.0025 inches, making it suitable for applications where consistent, repeatable readings are required. The ratchet stop thimble controls applied force at the measuring faces, reducing operator-to-operator variation. Solid carbide measuring faces resist wear during repeated use. This micrometer ships with a case and a wrench and is used by machinists, quality technicians, and precision tradespeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 52-240-005-1 is suited for external diameter and thickness measurements across a wide range of workpieces up to 5 inches. The quick, easy zero adjustment on the sleeve allows the user to zero the instrument without removing it from service for extended recalibration. It is a non-digital, non-counter instrument  -  readings are taken directly from the thimble and sleeve graduations. Typical applications include dimensional inspection of mechanical components, shaft measurement, and material stock verification in manufacturing, maintenance, and quality-control settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeasurement range up to 5 inches with 0.0001 inch graduation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccuracy of 0.0025 inches for reliable dimensional verification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRatchet stop thimble provides consistent, controlled measuring force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide measuring faces for extended wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick zero adjustment on sleeve for fast field calibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes protective case and wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose mechanical outside micrometer for external measurement of workpieces up to 5 inches in diameter or thickness across standard machining and inspection applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis instrument is used by machinists, quality technicians, and precision tradespeople. Clean the measuring faces with a lint-free cloth before use and verify zero at the reference standard. Store in the included case to protect the carbide faces and maintain calibration. Do not use the instrument to measure rotating workpieces or surfaces with burrs that could damage the measuring faces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThimble Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ratchet Stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring Face Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRotating Spindle\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDigital Counter\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Case, Wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FOWLER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 52-240-005-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FOWLER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67915394482482,"sku":"52-240-005-1","price":127.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9c28e5c0045f5d4983f467e5af1ad29.jpg?v=1791253409","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/fowler-52-240-005-1-outside-micrometer-5-in-range","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
