Micrometer M304.248 (0–25 mm) with large drum and ratchet stop — Metav IndustryLine

The Micrometer M304.248 is a compact frame micrometer designed for high‑precision measurements of small components in workshop and fine‑mechanical environments.

• Large matt‑chrome‑plated measuring drum
• Ratchet stop for consistent measuring force
• Measuring range 0–25 mm for micro applications
• Conforms to DIN 863 with hardened measuring faces

Precise readings for small tolerances

The instrument provides a clear mechanical graduation with a reading step of 0.01 mm, making it suitable where small deviations matter. The spindle uses a 1 mm pitch, which, combined with the 8 mm spindle diameter, gives a tactile, predictable feel when approaching the measurement point. Conformity to DIN 863 ensures the micrometer meets recognised workshop standards, while the analogue design keeps the operation straightforward and free from electronic dependencies — an advantage in many production and maintenance settings.

Designed for repeatable, fatigue‑resistant measurement

Classified in the micro range (0–25 mm), this frame micrometer is optimised for tasks that require both compactness and stiffness, such as watch components, small machined parts or precision assemblies. The built‑in ratchet stop delivers a constant measuring force so that successive readings remain comparable, and the hardened measuring faces maintain edge stability under regular use. At roughly 0.5 kg, the tool balances solidity and manoeuvrability for one‑hand operation during repetitive checks.

Robust finish and user‑friendly handling

A matt‑chrome‑plated measuring drum with enlarged diameter improves legibility and reduces glare under workshop lighting, speeding up routine inspections. The instrument is supplied in a protective case suitable for transport, helping to prevent shock and contamination between uses. The mechanical build resists common workshop stresses, and the choice of materials supports long service life with minimal maintenance.

Practical workshop integration and supply benefits

As a straightforward mechanical micrometer, this model slots into standard inspection workflows without additional infrastructure. The simple adjustment and clear scale reduce training overhead, while the compact form and conformity to established standards make it a reliable baseline tool for quality control stations. Metav’s distribution in Emmerich offers a dependable logistics and quality‑screening layer, simplifying procurement for small and medium‑sized workshops as well as industrial buyers.
