Quick answer: An Eye Piece Graticule (Micrometer) is an optical insert with an etched scale — linear micrometer, crosshairs, or grid — placed in a microscope’s optical path to support accurate measurement, calibration, and counting of specimens. Eye Piece Graticule (Micrometer) is priced at approximately ₹450 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
An eyepiece graticule (micrometer) is an optical insert with an accurately etched scale, such as a linear micrometer, crosshairs, or grid, placed directly in the microscope’s optical path. This supports quantitative microscopy tasks such as measuring specimen dimensions, calibrating against a stage micrometer, or counting objects within a defined grid. It’s a practical accessory for metallurgical analysis, general laboratory counting procedures, and quantitative microscopy coursework in teaching and research laboratories.
