The 75mm length makes it suited for checking micrometer settings in the mid-range of common outside micrometer spans. It ships with a heat insulating handle, which allows the user to hold the standard during calibration without transferring body heat to the gauge bar — a critical detail because thermal expansion in metal standards can introduce measurement error. Calibration standards like this one are standard toolroom and quality-control equipment wherever tight dimensional tolerances are maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis calibration standard is used in toolrooms, machine shops, quality labs, and inspection departments that require traceable micrometer verification. It is appropriate for use with outside micrometers when checking or setting instrument zero. The included heat insulating handle is especially useful in production environments where the standard is handled frequently. Technicians, metrologists, and precision machinists are the primary installers and users of this type of gauge reference standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e75mm nominal length provides a mid-range reference for outside micrometer calibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpherical ends ensure repeatable point contact and consistent seating against micrometer anvils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes heat insulating handle to minimize thermal transfer during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.5 pounds for easy bench and field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with outside micrometers requiring a 75mm calibration reference standard. Consult instrument documentation to confirm the appropriate gauge bar length for the micrometer range being verified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a precision reference standard, not a mechanical component requiring installation. Store the standard in its case when not in use to protect the gauging surfaces from contamination and damage. Always allow the standard to thermally stabilize to room temperature before use, and handle it by the insulating handle rather than the gauge bar to prevent measurement error from thermal expansion. Periodic recertification of the standard to a traceable reference is recommended to maintain calibration integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 75mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spherical\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: 0.5 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: 50974\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542162178354,"sku":"50974","price":67.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3b43e8acd954c3b917a937434f3b71ae_22e2b2c4-7b86-49f9-9def-d7d432767f97.jpg?v=1785894114","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-50974-micrometer-calibration-standard-75mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
