Backslash is a character on a keyboard. Backlash is the inherent slackness in the mechanical parts of a micrometer which allow an extremely small movement of the operating barrel without any corresponding movement of the measuring 'anvil' of the micrometer.

What is the 'zero error' in vernier calipers and micrometer screw gauge?
The zero error in the vernier calipers and micrometer screw gauge when the O mark on the main scale is not in line with the pointer.
What instrument measures the volume of a screw?
A micrometer (or micrometer screw gauge) measures the volume of a screw.
How do you take readings from a micrometer screw gauge?
The first step is to find the zero error and hence the zero correction. Rotate the micrometer until the fixed and movable jaws contact each other - not too hard and not too soft but just right, you should geta feel for this. Rarely will a micrometer will read zero. You need to figure out the zero error. It may be positive or negative. If the zero error is positive then the zero correction is negative and vicevers. Now open the micrometer and insert the object to be measured and close the micrometer with ideally the same sense of pressure you felt when you found the zero error. Now read the micrometer. You add the zero correction to get the true value.
What are the uses of micrometer screw gauge?
mafanta
What is zero error of micrometer?
.005mm
How do you measure from micrometer of dia?
Put it between two jaw piece micrometer. Screw close movable jaw. And read on a micrometer ruler.
What are the calcification of the micrometer?
The build up of calcium deposits in a micrometer. It may happen as a result of dust from blackboard chalk settling in the screw mechanism of the micrometer.The build up of calcium deposits in a micrometer.

Why is screw gauge commonly called as micrometer screw gauge?
A micrometer screw gauge is commonly known as a micrometer. This is a form of calipers used for measuring small dimensions. Screw gauge in extensively used in the engineering field for obtaining precision measurements. The article describes the principle and main parts of a basic micrometer screw gauge.
What is screw thread micrometer?
This is a tool that is used to measure the pitch diameter of a screw. This tool looks like a standard micrometer except that the anvils are specially configured to reach into the screw thread groove and touch the pitch diameter of the screw thread. The screw thread micrometer does not measure any other aspect of the screw thread. It does not measure the: pitch; threads-per-inch; major diameter; minor diameter; flank angles; lead; helix angle.
Material used to manufacture micrometer screw gauge?
mild steel
Meaning of micrometer?
Micrometer is a device for measuring very small distances, objects, or angles, especially one based on the rotation of a finely threaded screw. Also called mike, micrometer caliper.
Advantage of micrometer screw than vernier calliper?
The most compelling reason to select the micrometer Screw over the Vernier caliper is the guarantee that when measuring a flexible surface, the same amount of pressure is applied between samples. The Vernier caliper has the ability to measure internal and externally, but if precision is required, the micrometer screw is the tool of choice.
