Beta Tools - The reliable choice for precision measurement

Metric micrometers, often simply referred to as a micrometers, are precision measuring instruments used to accurately measure small distances or thicknesses with high precision. It is commonly used in engineering, machining, manufacturing, and other industries where precise measurement details are critical. Graduation on a metric micrometer provides a means of reading and interpreting precise measurements, contributing to the micrometer's accuracy. We offer an extensive selection of quality products that guarantee precise measurements each and every time, with consistent accuracy up to 1 µm! Metric micrometers are available in various sizes and types, including outside micrometers for measuring external dimensions, inside micrometers for measuring internal dimensions, depth micrometers for measuring depths of holes or slots, and vernier micrometers for enhanced precision. There are three types off Microns currently available – inside diameter/length (IDL), depth (OD) and Outside diameter/length(HDL). Each type specialises in different tasks depending how its setup calibrated accordingly prior getting underway but all categories provides accurate within hundredths off thousands off inch/millimeter capabilities around applied right!

Why buy this sort of device?

Metric micrometers are indispensable tools for achieving precise measurements in a wide range of applications, contributing to the accuracy and quality of engineering and manufacturing processes. Our outside micrometers are great for measuring thicknesses in cars or other mechanical items while standing free from the base. Choose from several sizes of individual micrometers, or select from our range of convenient micrometer sets for a mix of sizes. We also have heavy-duty steel bases that will ensure stability while working on big projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much weight can a heavy duty jack stand hold?

Capacity varies by model and is stated on each product page. Check the rating for the specific stand you are using, and always work in a matched pair.

Do I need 3 tonne or 6 tonne jack stands?

Work from the weight that will sit on the pair of stands rather than the vehicle’s total weight, then allow a margin above that figure.

Should jack stands always be used in pairs?

Yes. A matched pair set to the same height spreads the load evenly and keeps the vehicle level while you work.

Can a vehicle be left on jack stands overnight?

Stands are made to hold a static load, so a longer job is fine on level, solid ground. Check the vehicle is still sitting square each time you return to it.

What working height do I need for a truck or 4WD?

Measure from the ground to your support point with the wheels off. The tallest 3010H and 3010V models reach 1077 mm and 1090 mm respectively.
