A non-digital, rapid-feed Mitutoyo micrometer head with plain Ø 12mm stem and spindle fitted with flat tungsten-carbide tip.
The 1 mm-pitch thread on the spindle provides a 2X faster feed than standard for applications needing quick positioning, and the simple scale avoids the possibility of making a 0.5 mm reading error. The larger screw thread also provides greater load-bearing capacity than does a standard head, which is useful when the head is used as a stop.
