IP65 rated for protection from dust and water jets. These micrometers have zero-position memory, also known as absolute (ABS) positioning, which retains the measuring position when the micrometer is turned off. A zero-set button allows you to start measuring at any point.

All micrometers have thimbles with a constant-force mechanism, so that once the spindle contacts the surface of the measured object, it will stop tightening. This ensures repeatable measurements and prevents over-tightening.

Ratchet-stop thimbles have a speeder knob to reduce the time it takes to open and close the micrometer. When the spindle stops tightening, the thimble stops turning, but the speeder knob will continue turning with a clicking sound.
