I need help clearing up a debate regarding proper use of micrometers. We are currently using flat anvil 1" inch hand-held micrometers to measure the diameter of various steel wires.
There are quality techs that attempt to use just the barest edge of the anvil to measure OD of the wire because they think it is "more accurate".
I have always assumed it was standard practice to center the wire "more or less" in the anvil.
Can any of you shed some light on what best practice is please?
