Mitutoyo Series 156 Micrometer Stand

Description

Condition

Used (Good Working Condition / Non-Slip Base).

This micrometer stand is in good used condition. The enamel finish shows signs of normal workshop use, but the mechanical adjustment and locking knob function perfectly. Unique Feature: Unlike standard cast-iron base models, this unit is fitted with Rubber Feet on the bottom. This rare configuration provides superior grip on smooth surfaces (like granite surface plates or polished benchtops) and prevents the metal base from scratching your work area.

Product Overview

This is a genuine Mitutoyo Series 156 Micrometer Stand, the essential “third hand” for precision inspection. It is designed to hold standard outside micrometers (up to 100mm / 4″ capacity), allowing the operator to free up both hands to manipulate the workpiece and the thimble simultaneously.

The defining feature of this specific unit is the Rubber Footed Base. Standard stands often slide around on slick granite inspection tables or glass-topped benches; the rubber feet on this model plant it firmly in place, ensuring stability while you measure. It features the classic Hammertone Grey finish, an adjustable angle head for easy reading, and rubber-lined clamping jaws to protect your micrometer frame from marring.
