Starrett Precision Machinists' Level #98Z-12
Starrett precision machinists' 12" (300mm) level. Used but in good condition. The only flaw is the dent in the picture. It is mostly on the side, not the bottom surface and could be easily repaired. The Wooden storage case included. This is the finest level available, used for precision work.
This level has a ground and graduated main vial, a cross test vial, and a plumb vial. The main level vial is adjustable to a positive setting and is housed in a satin finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage. 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. To guarantee extreme accuracy, the length of your level should not be longer than the work you are leveling.

ü 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
ü Groove and bearing flats are machined together for maximum accuracy
