Starrett 252Z-14 Height Transfer Gage 0-14" Range with Wood Case

The Starrett 252Z-14 is a precision height transfer gage designed for accurately transferring height settings from gage blocks, height gages, and other standards. Compatible with test indicators and electronic amplifiers, this instrument is a staple in quality control, metrology labs, and precision machining environments. EDP# 55890.

Key Features:

• Measuring Range: 0–14 in (0–350 mm)
• Extremely rigid, rectangular box-type hollow column mounted integrally on a heavy steel base for vibration-proof stability — enabling precise, repeatable readings even with high-amplification indicators
• Adjusting mechanism is located in the base, isolating the column and indicator from external influences such as heat or hand pressure
• Hand-fitting base design for sure-grip handling and easy surface plate movement
• Three ground and lapped pads on the base bottom provide stability and smooth movement on the surface plate
• Adjustable slide with snug for holding test indicators or electronic gage heads, featuring rapid vertical manual adjustment and thumb-screw locking
• Fine vertical adjustment knob allows quick, precise slide positioning relative to the fixed column
• Snug on the slide provides two holes: 3/8 in (9.5 mm) and 0.156 in (4 mm) for holding gage rods or scribers
• Includes a 9 in gage rod with major diameter of 3/8 in and stepped diameters of 1/4 in and 7/32 in at one end, and 5/16 in at the opposite end — ideal for reaching confined areas or heights exceeding the gage's range
• Base Size: 5-3/4 in L x 3-1/2 in W (145 mm x 90 mm)
• Made in the USA
• Includes protective wood storage case

Indicator Compatibility:

• Starrett 708 and 709 test indicators mountable via PT22428 swivel clamp
• Starrett 196 universal back-plunger indicators mountable using snugs PT18718 or PT18724
• Starrett 25, 81, 655, and 656 series dial indicators usable via PT06784-A gage rod
• PT06784-A gage holding rod accommodates the Starrett 715-1 gaging head for use with the 717 electronic gage; includes wire retaining clip to prevent cable deflection
• Surface gage spindles 57C, 57D, 12, and 18 available as optional attachments for scribing and layout work

The Starrett 252Z-14 height transfer gage delivers the precision, rigidity, and versatility expected from Starrett metrology tools, making it an essential instrument for surface plate inspection and dimensional measurement tasks.
