Starrett 234A End Measuring Rod

The Starrett 234A is a single-piece end measuring rod designed for precise micrometer calibration. Its 7/16 inch diameter and round end shape suit workshop and inspection tasks that demand reliable reference standards.

Check micrometer range and anvil fit

Verify that your micrometer accepts a 7/16 inch diameter standard and can measure a 17 inch length. Confirm the round end contacts the anvil faces cleanly and that the rubber grip does not interfere with your clamping method.

Replaces worn or missing inch standards

This rod replaces a damaged or lost 17 inch setting rod in an inch-based micrometer set. The upgrade is worth it when the existing standard shows wear that exceeds calibration tolerance or when a complete set requires the specific 17 inch length.

Highlights

  • Precise 17 in length sets micrometers accurately
  • 7/16 in diameter fits standard calibration needs
  • Round end shape ensures consistent contact surfaces
  • Rubber grip handle provides secure comfortable control
  • Single-piece rod simplifies measurement workflow

Questions about this item

Does the 17 in end measuring rod arrive with the rubber handle already fitted or must the grip be purchased separately?

The rod is supplied as a single piece with the 7/16 in rubber grip permanently attached so nothing extra is required.

Which length option should I select if I need the 17 in setting standard?

Choose the model listed as 17 in; the part number 234A-17 identifies that exact length.

How does the 7/16 in diameter affect use inside a micrometer frame?

The 7/16 in round end seats directly in the anvil and spindle faces of compatible inch micrometers for accurate 17 in calibration.
