Reliable calibration for large-range micrometre set-up

This long-range reference is intended to simplify the transfer of a defined nominal dimension into external micrometres used in jigs, fixtures and component inspection. With a nominal length of 975 mm and an indicated accuracy of 0.01 mm (equivalent to 10 µm), the gauge supports repeatable settings over distances where shorter standards lose stiffness. The spherical measuring faces ensure a defined contact geometry that reduces tilt and local deformation at the contact points, while the moderate mass of 1.6 kg balances stability with manageable handling. For production environments, the combination of reach and resolution reduces setup time and improves first‑pass yield by making micrometre adjustments quicker and more reliable.

Minimise thermal influence and handling errors

Thermal expansion is a common source of measurement drift on long setting standards. The built‑in thermal protection reduces the effect of ambient temperature changes during handling and short bench‑time transfers, helping to keep the reference dimension stable. The constructive choices emphasise usability: spherical contact faces and a compact profile make it easier to seat the gauge precisely against a micrometre anvil, while the reduced susceptibility to thermal shift lowers the need for repeated rechecks. In practice, the result is fewer interruptions for re‑setting and a smoother workflow in metrology benches and production control stations.

Seamless workshop integration and traceability

Designed as an accessory for metrology departments, the reference supports established setting routines and is straightforward to incorporate into existing calibration chains. The gauge is supplied with a clear identification (SKU M304.321.6) and is suitable for use where a long, rigid reference is required to set external micrometres. By reducing adjustment variability through geometry and thermal mitigation, inspection cycles become more efficient and measurement uncertainty is easier to control. Where traceability is required, the accompanying documentation describes the declared accuracy and the intended use case so that the standard can be included in routine quality records.

FAQ

What is the declared accuracy and what does it mean in practice?
The declared accuracy of 0.01 mm (10 µm) means the reference is suitable for transferring a nominal dimension with that order of repeatability; the setting gauge is therefore appropriate for workshop and routine inspection tasks where micrometre adjustments require reliable 10 µm steps.

Can this reference be used to set any external micrometre?
Yes, the setting gauge is intended for setting external micrometres and is constructed with spherical measuring faces to give reproducible contact geometry when transferring the 975 mm reference dimension.

How does the thermal protection help during normal use?
The integrated thermal protection reduces short‑term dimension shifts caused by temperature differences between the gauge and the micrometre or bench, improving stability while handling and shortening the time needed to reach a stable measurement condition.

Is the gauge suitable for large assemblies and fixtures?
With a nominal length of 975 mm the gauge belongs to the large‑range class (500–1,000 mm) and is designed for setting micrometres that will be used on larger components, assemblies and fixture checks where extended reach and stiffness are required.

What documentation accompanies the product?
The setting gauge is supplied with product identification and specification details that support its integration into calibration and inspection procedures; SKU M304.321.6 is indicated for traceability and record‑keeping.
