Starrett 67098 Blade Micrometer 10 to 11 Inches

Product Description

The STARRETT 67098 is a mechanical blade micrometer designed for measuring in narrow slots, grooves, keyways, and other tight spaces where a standard micrometer anvil cannot reach. It covers a measurement range of 10 to 11 inches with a graduation of 0.001 inches, making it suitable for precision dimensional inspection work. The speeder thimble allows for quick and easy spindle adjustment without sacrificing accuracy. Blade thickness is 0.030 inches, giving the tool access to confined features. The satin chrome finish reduces glare under shop lighting. A wrench is included. This tool is used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and precision measurement technicians.

The 67098 is built for applications where thin, flat measuring surfaces are required to reach recessed or narrow features. Typical use cases include checking keyway widths, slot depths, and similar close-tolerance features in machined components. The blade depth of 0.3125 inches and throat depth of 6.344 inches give it reach into features that standard outside micrometers cannot access. Both the anvil and spindle are steel construction. This micrometer is appropriate for quality control, toolroom, and production floor environments where precise inch-measurement capability in the 10 to 11 inch range is needed.

Compatibility

Designed as a precision outside blade micrometer for general machining and toolroom applications requiring measurement in the 10 to 11 inch range where blade-style contact surfaces are necessary.

Installation Notes

Blade micrometers are handled and stored by qualified metrology or machining personnel. Before use, verify the tool has been calibrated and zero-checked against a known standard at the applicable temperature. Store in the provided case when not in use to protect the blade edges and measuring faces from damage. Do not force the spindle against a workpiece; use the speeder thimble for controlled approach and final seating.
