Starrett - Height Gages

This tool is the "baby brother" of the No. 254 Master Vernier Height Gage. It is essentially the same tool, but a much lighter version for normal use where heavy duty applications are not practical. The 18" and 450 mm models weigh 3 1/4 lbs. (1.5 kg.). No other height gage features this favorable combination of design, weight and accuracy.

Readability Features

• Long, 50-division vernier scales that can be read to .001" or 0.02 mm without a magnifying glass
• Flush-fitting of the vernier scales to the main scale eliminates parallax
• Easy-reading sharp black lines and figures against Starrett satin chrome finish background
• The scriber and the base are designed so that the gage will read directly from zero

Ease-of-Handling Features

• Slides easily for quick adjustment and has a screw type adjusting nut on the bar for precise positioning
• The design of the hardened and stabilized bar plus the balanced design and weight of the base eliminate vibration
• The base is hardened, ground, and lapped and is hand shaped for sure grip and easy movement
• The vertical bar is positioned near the center of the base for balance and stability
• Ability to scribe lines, measure with dial indicators or electronic probes and accept depth attachments
• The auxiliary scriber is a circular carbide scriber – cuts sharp, clean lines smoothly – rotatable for wear – a Starrett original
