Starrett 12828 Offset Attachment for 5004 Electronic Depth Gage, 1.024" Length

The Starrett offset attachment has a 1.024" overall length, and is suitable for use with Starrett 5004 series electronic depth gauges (sold separately). The attachment offsets base position for increased measurement capacity and is made of hardened steel for durability and accurate measurements. This offset attachment is suitable for precise measurement in a variety of manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering applications.

Depth gauges are precision measuring instruments used to determine the depth of any shape that has a step, groove, or slot. These gauges often take the form of sliders that travel on a measuring beam or rods, are moved to position by hand, and then adjusted with a calibrated screw. The base of the gauge rests at the top of the shape whose recession is to be measured, while the beam or rods extend to the bottom of the recession to determine the measurement. Gauge position is read from a graduated scale, dial, counters, or an electronic display.

The L.S. Starrett Company manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology and testing equipment, and saw blade products. The company, founded in 1880, is headquartered in Athol, MA.
