Starrett 55223 Micrometer Case 4 Inches 216 216M

Product Description

The STARRETT 55223 is a wood micrometer case designed to store and protect outside micrometers with a measuring range up to 4 inches. Built specifically as an accessory for the 216 and 216M Series Digital Micrometers, this case provides a dedicated, form-fitted storage solution that keeps precision measuring instruments secure during transport and bench storage. The wood construction offers a traditional, rigid enclosure that absorbs minor impact and resists the kind of casual damage that can compromise calibration on high-tolerance tools. Metrology technicians and machinists rely on proper instrument storage to maintain measurement integrity between jobs.

This case is intended for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and any precision measurement environment where the 216 or 216M Series Digital Micrometers are part of the standard toolset. It fits instruments measuring from 3 inches minimum to 4 inches maximum range, making it the correct storage solution for that specific range increment. It is not a universal micrometer case and should be matched to the correct instrument series before purchase.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this accessory case. Before placing a micrometer in storage, ensure the instrument spindle is clean and lightly protected per the manufacturer's care guidelines. Avoid storing the micrometer with the spindle under tension against the anvil, as this can affect long-term accuracy. Store the case in a dry environment away from temperature extremes to preserve both the wood case and the instrument inside.
