STARRETT 12" MASTER .001 VERNIER CALIPERS NO.123Z-12
Now, Starrett introduces the ultimate in Vernier gage design the new No. 123 SATIN CHROME MASTER VERNIER Caliper, featuring greatly improved, easier, faster reading with maximum accuracy, rigidity and long gaging life.
New long 50-division Vernier scales with widely spaced easy-to-read graduations make possible greatly simplified settings and readings without the use of a magnifying glass. This feature permits just half as many bar graduations as conventional single or double Verier tools, a further asset to fast, accurate readings. Flush fitting of the Vernier scales, both in the same plane, eliminates reading errors caused by parallax, and insures exact alignment of matching lines on bar and Vernier.
The open-face design of the Starrett MASTER VERNIER Caliper also makes possible two Vernier scales on one side of the gage for inside and outside measurements, thus allowing both Verniers to be read without turning tool over.
An extremely important feature of this gage is Starrett SATIN CHROME over the entire tool including all reading surfaces. This exclusive finish, pioneered by Starrett, eliminates glare under all shop lighting conditions, makes reading a pleasure instead of an effort. Surfaces are hard chrome plated for resistance to rust and stain. Both bar and Vernier scales are machine divided to highest accuracy.
The master bar, hardened and stabilized for maximum rigidity and long lasting accuracy, features combination straight and angular ways for positive alignment of graduations and easy adjusting nut. The long length of the adjusting jaw provides a longer bearing surface on the master bar, thereby insuring squareness with the solid jaw and extra resistance to springing.
