It features a 0.01 inch graduation for reliable, repeatable readings and is built around a friction thimble mechanism that prevents over-tightening the spindle against the part being measured. Measuring faces are solid carbide for long-term wear resistance. The satin chrome finish reduces glare during use. This instrument is intended for machinists, tool-and-die workers, quality control technicians, and trade professionals who require consistent dimensional verification in shop or field environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 68050 suits general-purpose outside measurement applications in manufacturing, maintenance, and precision trade work. The friction thimble design makes it well suited for operators who take repetitive measurements and need consistent applied force without adjusting technique. The ring-style lock nut allows the spindle to be secured at a set reading for transfer measurement or inspection recording. This micrometer is a hand-tool-category instrument appropriate for any trade environment requiring dimensional verification to 0.01 inch resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.01 inch graduation for precise outside measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFriction thimble limits applied clamping force for repeatable readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide measuring faces resist wear on hardened workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRing-style lock nut included for securing spindle at a set position\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSatin chrome finish reduces reflective glare in bright shop environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStarrett reference number 436.1MXFL-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard outside micrometer for general dimensional measurement tasks; no specific system or equipment compatibility is required for this hand tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo installation is required for this hand measuring instrument. Store in the supplied case or a protected location away from moisture, chips, and temperature extremes to preserve calibration. Before use, verify the zero setting against a calibration standard appropriate to the measuring range. Periodic cleaning of the spindle threads and measuring faces with a lint-free cloth maintains accuracy over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.002 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThimble Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnvil Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnvil Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 inches (7.60 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpindle Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 inches (7.60 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring Face Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLock Nut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Satin Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: California Proposition 65\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: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 68050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538343625010,"sku":"68050","price":238.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/43d55da1892448d4812751e77654f515.jpg?v=1785823414","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-68050-mechanical-outside-micrometer-0-01-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
