It features a ratchet stop thimble that applies consistent measuring pressure, reducing operator-induced variation across repeated readings. The measuring faces are solid carbide, providing wear resistance for long-term accuracy in shop environments. Graduation is 0.01 inches with an accuracy of 0.002 millimeters, making it suitable for close-tolerance work. This micrometer is a manual instrument with no digital counter and a non-rotating spindle. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and precision maintenance trades rely on this class of instrument for dimensional verification during fabrication, inspection, and quality control work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe STARRETT 68056 is appropriate for use in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and maintenance environments where external dimensional measurement is required. Its ratchet stop thimble makes it well suited for applications where consistent gauge pressure is critical to obtaining repeatable readings. The enamel finish provides durability in general shop conditions. This instrument is a standard outside micrometer format and fits into workflows that require hand-tool precision measurement without electronic components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraduation of 0.01 inches for fine linear measurement resolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccuracy of 0.002 millimeters for close-tolerance inspection work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRatchet stop thimble ensures consistent measuring pressure across readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide measuring faces resist wear for extended service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-rotating spindle prevents workpiece marking during measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnamel finish for durability in general shop environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style outside micrometer instrument; also referenced under Starrett catalog number 436.1MXRL-75. Verify measuring range against your application requirements before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutside micrometers require no power source or mounting. Before use, clean the measuring faces and verify the instrument zeros correctly at its lower range limit using the appropriate standard or setting gauge. Store the micrometer with a slight gap between the faces to prevent damage from thermal expansion. Calibration intervals should follow your facility quality plan or applicable metrology standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 millimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThimble Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ratchet Stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring Face Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRotating Spindle\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDigital Counter\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Enamel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStarrett Catalog Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 436.1MXRL-75\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: 68056\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540640563506,"sku":"68056","price":330.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3085923caf4a7454c23a9ac5e344fdf0_0aec096f-3674-4259-959e-a2da07ec17d2.jpg?v=1785860702","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-68056-mechanical-outside-micrometer-0-01-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
