Optical Parallels

The Mitutoyo optical parallels are constructed of optical-grade glass and can measure the parallelism and flatness of a micrometer’s measuring face.

Features & Benefits

When used with a monochromatic light, a Mitutoyo optical parallel can determine the measuring surface parallelism within 0.2µm/.000008” and flatness within 0.1µm/.000004” on micrometers. Our optical parallels are precision polished and lapped for exceptional flatness in our Japanese factories.

  • Available in Metric or Inch sets
  • Each set of parallels consists of 4 thicknesses
  • Constructed of highly polished, lapped optical-grade glass
  • Inspects the flatness of metal, ceramic and other materials
  • Supplied in a fitted wooden case
