What are the parts of an internal micrometer?

What are the parts of a micrometer?

  • Objects to be measured are placed between the measuring faces; the anvil and the spindle.
  • The anvil is the stationary measuring face against which parts are held until the spindle makes contact with the work.
  • The threaded spindle is the moving measuring face of the micrometer.

How are groove micrometers used to measure bore diameter?

Insert into small bores, slots, grooves, and recesses and turn the knob on the handle to expand the contacts. To find the bore diameter, use a micrometer to measure the distance across the contacts. The full-ball design makes these gauges good for measuring deep bores.
