Screw Gauge:
“A screw gauge is an instrument that is used to measure small lengths with accuracy
greater than a Vernier Caliper. It is also known as micrometer screw gauge.”
Diagram:
To find the zero error close the gaps between the spindle and the stud of the screw
gauge. If the zero of circular scale coincides with the index line, then there is a zero
error.
In this case simply multiply the number of divisions of the circular scale that has
crossed the index line with the least count of screw gauge to find the negative zero error
correction.
