NIST Certified Stage Micrometers

Stage micrometers are used to calibrate eyepiece reticles. In many industries it is important to have a stage micrometer that is NIST certified. NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) is a measurement standards laboratory which is a non-regulatory agency of the United States Department of Commerce.

NIST certification provides documentation that the stage micrometer meets very specific measuring guidelines.

All of Microscope World's stage micrometers can be NIST certified. If you need a NIST certified stage micrometer please give us a call at 800-942-0528 and we will be happy to help you out.
