With a calibrated length of 1 inch and an accuracy of 0.000050 inch, this standard provides a reliable reference point for zero-setting and span verification in shop, lab, and field environments. A heat insulating handle is included to prevent thermal expansion from affecting the reference dimension during use. Calibration standards like this one are essential tools for metrology technicians, quality control personnel, and any trade professional who depends on micrometer accuracy for critical measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis calibration standard is suited for use with outside micrometers requiring a 1-inch reference. It is commonly used in manufacturing, machining, HVAC equipment service, and mechanical trades where micrometer calibration is part of a tool maintenance or quality assurance program. The spherical end geometry ensures consistent, repeatable contact with the micrometer anvil and spindle, reducing operator-induced measurement error during the calibration process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalibrated reference length of 1 inch for micrometer zero-setting and verification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccuracy of 0.000050 inch for high-precision calibration applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpherical end geometry provides consistent, repeatable anvil contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes heat insulating handle to minimize thermal expansion error during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory calibrated for immediate use out of packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with outside micrometers requiring a 1-inch calibration reference.

Allow the standard and micrometer to reach the same ambient temperature before use, particularly when moving between environments with different temperatures. Store the standard in its case when not in use to protect the reference surfaces from damage or contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReference Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000050 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalibrated\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Heat Insulating Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50969\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538318459186,"sku":"50969","price":56.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01c2914f1354b45cbbfec822d3ad7b9c.jpg?v=1785822857","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-50969-micrometer-calibration-standard-1-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
