Great starrett outside spring 6" 150MM caliper divider
SOLID STARRETT OUTSIDE SPRING 6" 150MM CALIPER DIVIDER
This is a vintage Starrett Spring-Type Caliper: 6" (150mm) Divider with Quick Spring.
Starrett "Fay" Calipers and Dividers feature exceptionally rugged construction. The legs are made from heavy square stock, machined to a smooth taper. The fulcrum stud is hardened and has a large bearing surface to prevent side deflection of the legs. The bow spring is both strong and flexible, and the adjustment screw is centrally located in the legs to assure smooth action. Furnished in either spring nut or solid nut models. The Starrett spring nut is designed for making quick, positive adjustments. The threads of the nut firmly engage the screw at the slightest pressure from the leg. When the pressure is withdrawn, the nut automatically releases itself, sliding freely over the screw.
