V-Anvil Micrometer
A v-anvil micrometer is a specially designed micrometer ideal for measuring the outside diameter of cutting tools with an odd number of flutes and for assessing the out-of-roundness of a part. The anvil of the v-anvil micrometer is shaped like the letter “V” laying on its side and comes with more widely distanced or close together tips. The point where the two lines of the “V” connect can be touching and fused or may have a small gap between them. Each differently designed v-anvil micrometer is built in such a way to take particular and precise measurements.
