The rod extends the measurement range of a compatible depth gage from 0 to 1 inch, allowing technicians and machinists to take accurate depth measurements in precision applications. The rod diameter measures 5\/32 inch (3.20 mm), and the part weighs 0.17 pounds, making it a lightweight but purpose-built replacement or supplemental rod for Starrett depth gage sets. Installation requires no special tools, and the rod is sold individually as a single-unit package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 71982 rod is intended for use in precision measurement environments such as machine shops, fabrication facilities, and quality control stations. It fits within the Starrett 443 and 445 Series depth gage systems and is suited for professional machinists, tool-and-die technicians, metrologists, and trade professionals who require accurate depth readings during inspection, setup, or manufacturing operations. It is appropriate for both bench and field measurement tasks where depth gage rod replacement or range extension is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeasurement range of 0 to 1 inch for depth gage applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRod diameter of 5\/32 inch (3.20 mm) for precise fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRod-style anvil type compatible with micrometer depth gage systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.17 pounds for easy handling and storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single-unit package with no minimum order beyond one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Starrett 443 and 445 Series micrometer depth gages as a direct-fit accessory rod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the micrometer rod should be performed by a qualified machinist or metrology technician familiar with depth gage assemblies. Ensure the depth gage is not under load and is set to zero before removing or installing a rod. Verify rod seating is secure and that mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before use. Handle with care to avoid bending or surface damage that could affect measurement accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessory Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 to 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Measurement (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnvil Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (3.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 71982\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544086446386,"sku":"71982","price":36.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bfe5dcffb84fe10fe2716b20958337ce.jpg?v=1785923898","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-71982-micrometer-rod-443-445-series-depth-gages","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
