Description
A micrometer is a precision measuring tool that can measure a smaller range of lengths than a vernier caliper. It is generally more precise than a vernier caliper, but can measure a smaller range of lengths. The temperature of the workpiece is required to be around 20C to have consistent measuring results. Precision measuring tools should never be put near a magnetic area to avoid the micrometer being magnetized.

Range:
0-25mm
Readout: Analog
Accuracy: 0.01mm
Application:
A micrometer generally provides greater precision than a vernier caliper, but
can measure a smaller range of lengths.
Before using a micrometer:
Make sure the workpiece being measured is clean and has no burrs on the
edges.
The temperature of the workpiece is required to be around 20C to
have consistent measuring results.
Precision measuring tools should never be put near a magnetic area to
avoid the micrometer being magnetized.
