Revised Content:
Starrett, a renowned name in the world of precision tools, introduces the Starrett 98 Machinists Level with Ground and Graduated Vial. This level, measuring 200mm (8") in size, comes without a case and features a cross test vial. The base of the level is designed with an involute groove running the length of the base, providing a reliable seat for round work.
The vials in this level are adjustable, allowing for a positive setting. They are housed in a satin-finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage. The main level vials have graduations that are approximately 80-90 seconds or .005" per foot (0.42mm per meter), ensuring precise measurements.
Starrett offers a wide range of levels catering to various applications, from jobsite to workshop needs. This particular model is specifically designed for machine shop and toolroom use, featuring precisely made metal tools with ground surfaces.
The Starrett Machinists Levels boast several key features that make them exceptional:
Adjustable Vials: The vials can be adjusted to a positive setting by turning the knurled knob on the side of the level, enabling quick and easy leveling tasks.
Durable Fine Finish: The base of the level is made from cast iron and precision-machined on the reference surface to increase durability. The vial is housed in a satin-finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage.
Accurate and Precise: The inclusion of a cross test vial allows for simultaneous leveling in both directions, preventing inaccuracies in the main vial reading caused by canting the level sideways on round work.
Ergonomic Design: The base of the level features an involute groove between the bearing flats, providing a reliable and accurate seating on round work. The special involute design permits better centering and greater capacity to handle larger rounds.
Proudly made in the USA, Starrett combines over 140 years of American heritage and innovation with globally sourced materials to deliver exceptional quality tools and products, setting the standard for excellence in the industry.
