Can-Seam & Wire Micrometers

Can-seam and wire micrometers measure the diameter of a cylinder. You can use them in several ways, including in product quality control and professional measurement.

Can-seam micrometers measure the circumference of cylindrical objects—for example, cans. Simply, wrap a measuring tape around the object and read the measurement from the tape indicator.

Wire micrometers measure the internal diameters of cylinders. However, you pass a wire through the object and measure how much of it is left after passing through both ends of the object.

Both can-seam and wire micrometers allow you to measure very small (and sometimes very large) diameters quickly, easily, and accurately.
