The Starrett 255 is the “baby brother” of the 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. 0-18″ Range, .001″ Grad with Case.

Features

• Long, 50-division vernier scales that can be read to .001 or 0.02mm 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
• 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
