3、uring the thickness of uncoated steel sheet and nonmetallic and metallic-coatedsteel sheet.Thickness is a significant quality characteristic of steel sheet products.The ability to accurately measure thickness usinghand micrometers is critical in determining product conformance to specifications. The

9、.3.2 The definitions and procedures for measuring thickness characteristics of steel sheet products are provided so that purchasersand suppliers have common definitions and measuring procedures for thickness measurements. The intention of these definitionsand measuring methods is not to provide dime

16、428-2959. United States1that may penetrate the surface of the item being measured shall not be used for thickness measurements of sheet steels.Micrometers can be electronic digital, mechanical digital, or analog with vernier scale, as shown in Fig. 1(a), (b), and (c).4.2 Unlock the micrometer and if

17、 electronic digital, turn it on.4.3 Typical ways to hold/secure the micrometer are:4.3.1 Grasp the micrometer as shown in Fig. 2, with the small finger placed in the frame of the micrometer for support. Thisallows the other hand to insert the sample for measuring after cleaning (see 4.4).4.3.2 Suppo

18、rt the micrometer with a micrometer mount. This allows the other hand to insert the sample after cleaning (see 4.4).Inserting the sample with one hand while lightly clamping with the other hand, as shown in Fig. 3.4.4 Clean the micrometer tips at regular intervals. Place cleaning material, such as c

19、lean dry paper, lint free cloth, cardboardor fabric (not abrasive such as sandpaper) in between the anvil and spindle. Tighten the micrometer until lightly snug. Pull thecleaning material until free of the micrometer. Repeat until the micrometer is clean. Usually once or twice is adequate.4.5 Close

20、the micrometer by turning the friction thimble and zero out (reset) the micrometer in accordance with manufacturersinstructions. For mechanical vernier micrometers, adjust the barrel to read zero in accordance with manufacturers instructions, andas mechanical micrometers are sensitive to barrel adju

21、stments, recalibrate in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.4.6 Measure material thickness by opening the micrometer wide enough so the sample can be placed between the anvil andspindle tip. Turn the friction thimble until there is no further movement of the spindle. Spin the friction thi

22、mble one further turnto secure the measurement. For electronic digital micrometers, read the viewing screen for the measurement. Follow themanufacturers instructions for mechanical micrometers with or without vernier micrometer scales.4.7 Repeat measurements as required. Note that the micrometer rea

23、dings are subject to the precision of the type of micrometerused.4.8 Recording Readings:4.8.1 If required on the sample, identify where the reading(s) was made using a circle, box, cross hairs, etc.4.8.2 In the measurement record of readings, use a traceable identification back to the sample or prod

24、uct that was measured.5. Calibration Checks5.1 It is common practice to calibrate micrometers on a regular basis in accordance with operational standards of each company.The micrometers must be calibrated to appropriate NIST or equivalent standards within the prescribed time limits. The maximumlengt

25、h of time recommended between calibrations is one year.5.2 Zero out the micrometer.5.3 Measure at least three (3) (different) thicknesses so that the range of typical measurement is covered. Zero may be one ofthe reference measurements. Use NIST or equivalent traceable standards (test blocks) in inc

26、rements of 0.050 in. that are withinthe thickness range of the product being measured. Example: To measure thin sheet such as 0.048 in., use zero and two standardsof 0.050000 in. 1.30 mm and 0.100000 in. 2.54 mm. Heavy thickness sheet such as 0.205 in., would use 0.200000 in 5.08 mm,0.250000 in. 6.3

27、5 mm, and 0.300000 in. 7.60 mm. If the micrometer readings of the standards (test blocks) are satisfactory, thedevice can be used to measure sheet steel with confidence.6.

When measuring, let the micrometeracclimate to the ambient temperature of the sample. It is then appropriat

29、e to set the micrometer at zero.6.3 Keep the micrometer clean and in a clean environment.6.4 Keep micrometer away from liquids of any kind.6.5 Do not subject the micrometer to sudden shocks such as from dropping, or to excessive force during measuring.6.6 Wipe off dust, cutting chips, oil, and moist

30、ure from the micrometer after each use.6.7 When cleaning the micrometer, use a soft cloth using a neutral detergent. Do not use any organic solvent (thinner, etc.) asit may cause damage to the device.6.8 Do not use an electric marking pen or other such device on the micrometer.FIG. 2 Holding a Micom
