GRADUATED IN TEN-THOUSANDTHS OF AN INCH (.0001")
• The micrometers graduated in Ten-Thousandths of an Inch read like
micrometers graduated in thousandths, except that an additional
reading in ten-thousandths is obtained from a vernier scale (4). The
vernier consists of ten divisions on the sleeve, each one equal to one
ten-thousandth of an Inch (.0001").
• To read a ten-thousandths micrometer, first obtain the thousandths
reading, and then see which of the lines on the vernier coincides with
one of the lines on the thimble (5). If it is the line "7" on the sleeve, add
.0007" etc. See example:
