Threaded Lock Collar Advantages
The threaded collar found on all BM Series micrometers not only allows easy front-side installation, it also allows the user to fine tune the distance between the micrometer's tip and the contact point.
Designed for Vacuum Applications
Our low outgassing Micrometer Heads are designed for demanding vacuum environments. Several key steps are taken in the design, assembly and packaging of these parts. Following machining, each component is chemically cleaned in an ultrasonic bath to remove contaminating substances. These micrometers are cleanroom assembled using vacuum compatible lubricants.
