NEW in wooden box - Starrett No. 98 Precision Machinist Level - 12 inch This was mine, bought it new for a new position and ended up they furnished me with a level, so I kept this one and after a few years on the shop shelf, have decided to sell. This level is in absolutely perfect condition. New, never been used (more than 1 or two times to check it out.). Beautiful machining, nice case. Can't go wrong. Straight from Starrett................ here's their description. These are the finest levels available, used for precision work that is typically required in industry. They all have these features: * All level bases are made from the finest quality seasoned cast iron and are precision-machined on the reference surface * Non-machined surfaces have an attractive, black wrinkle finish * All models except the No. 199 have an involute longitudinal groove between the bearing flats for accurate seating on round work. This groove has a special involute design, permitting better centering and greater capacity to handle larger rounds * Groove and bearing flats are machined together for maximum accuracy No. 98 Series Machinists' Level with ground and graduated vials These levels have ground and graduated main vials. All sizes have a cross test vial except the 4" (100mm) model. The 12" (300mm) model also has a plumb vial and the 18" (450mm) size has a double plumb vial. These vials are adjustable to a positive setting and are housed in a satin finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage. The base of the levels features an involute groove running the length of the base, which provides a reliable seat for round work such as pipes or shafting. With the cross test vial, it is possible to simultaneously level in both directions. This prevents inaccuracies in the main vial reading caused by canting the level sidewise on round work. The 6" through 18" (150-450mm) main level vials have graduations that are approximately 80-90 seconds or .005" per foot (0.42mm per meter). There are five, six, or seven lines on each side of the bubble, depending on the base length. (New starrett machinist level - no 98 12" in wood box was posted and is owned by: Dina Simmons) |
