About This Product
Before students can measure objects under the microscope, they need to know what one division of the eyepiece graticule is worth at the objective in use. Placing the stage micrometer on the stage and lining its scale up with the graticule gives that value, and the process is repeated for each objective. Its robust construction suits student, lab and instructional use.
Frequently Asked Questions

It is placed on the microscope stage like a slide. Its scale is compared with the eyepiece graticule so each graticule division can be converted to a real length for the objective in use; this is repeated when objectives are changed.
What is it made of?
The scale is centred on a glass disc mounted in a black anodised aluminium slide, 75 x 24 x 2mm thick.
