What mic is this?

[Tractor manParticipant @tractorman]

I bought this mic today just as a curiosity but Id love to know the reason for the small frame.

can anyone tell me the name or use of this type of mic please?

Best regards Mick

My guess is for sheet or plate.

According to this page it's a hub micrometer…..

"Dedicated to measuring the length and thickness of steps in a pipe."

…but I think it's designed for the frame to fit down a bore and allow the measurement of the width of a hub.

Many thanks for the help. I’m sure it will be useful for general use and for ?20 in near mint condition I’m very happy.

I have a Moore and Wright version, came with some ex MOD stuff 50 plus years ago. Useful on the lathe when facing off sleeves/hubs.
