Micrometer - Specialty
Some features just won't sit still for a standard micrometer. These six solve the specific cases that come up: a universal model that accepts seven pairs of anvils, a tube micrometer for measuring wall thickness at a right angle, a spline micrometer, an Indi-X comparative gage, and extended-range point micrometers for thread pitch diameter beyond a standard mic's reach.

How to choose
Multi-purpose
Universal micrometer
Accepts seven pairs of interchangeable anvils, letting one electronic micrometer cover dimensions that would otherwise need several dedicated tools. Worth it for a shop measuring varied, irregular features rather than one repeated dimension.
Comparative gaging
Indi-X indicating micrometer
Unlike a standard micrometer that gives an absolute reading, the Indi-X compares a part against a preset master, similar to how a dial indicator works. Useful for checking many parts quickly against one known-good reference rather than reading an absolute dimension each time.
Thread pitch diameter
Extended-range point micrometers
Twin conical anvils measure thread pitch diameter over a wider range than a standard point micrometer covers, available in both inch (0.3" to 1.7") and metric (7 to 45mm) versions with a digit counter display.
Common questions
Seven pairs of anvils covering different contact shapes, letting one micrometer body measure dimensions, grooves, curved surfaces, points, that would otherwise require several separate specialty micrometers.
A regular micrometer gives you an absolute measurement. The Indi-X instead compares a part against a preset master gage and shows the deviation, which is faster for checking many parts against one known-good reference.
It measures wall thickness on tubing, with the anvil positioned at a 90-degree angle to the spindle so it can reach around the tube wall, a measurement a standard straight-line micrometer can't take.
