Testex Linearizing Spring Micrometer
The Linearizing Spring Micrometer is designed to make reading Testex Press-O-Film Replica tape a simpler and more streamlined process. Â It removes the need of setting the gauge to 8 or subtracting 2 from your reading since it automatically will deduct the 2 mils of Mylar on the replica tape. Â You simply set the needle to the point that says “Zero Here” and proceed to take your readings. Â The next step the linearizing micrometer takes in making tape readings easier is the fact that it will indicate if you are using the proper grade of tape. Â For example: If you take a reading with X-Coarse replica tape and the needle falls under the red set of numbers you need to switch to the Coarse grade of tape. Â The biggest innovation with the linearizing spring micrometer is the fact that you no longer have to use both Coarse and X-Coarse tape if you fall between 1.5 and 2.5 mils. Â Simply use the grade that the dial face needle indicates and you are good to go! Â This gauge is capable of reading .8 to 5 mils which is the range of the Replica Tapes.
A factory certification is not done on any of the micrometers. Â If you would like your unit certified be sure to add it to the micrometer before adding it to your cart.
