The MasterGage/Classic is packed with exciting patented features that are built to last! The body of the Classic is fabricated from rugged aircraft quality extruded aluminum. All sides are ground flat, square and parallel to each other to within 0.001 inches [as a reference, the human hair is 0.001 inch]. Once ground, the body is then machined to exacting tolerances [0.0002 inches] on computer controlled NC machinery, the surface is then plated with a protective black anodized finish that also presents a superb black non-glare surface for easy reading.
The unit is then precisely and permanently laser etched with scales that are in inches, millimeters and degrees. This allows the Classic to be used on any equipment worldwide – regardless of the measurement standards used.
The Classic body has extruded “T” slots in both the top and bottom surfaces, allowing the owner to use special magnets. These magnet accessories are very powerful rare earth [neodymium boron] magnets that fit into the “T” slots. A valuable Accessory that insures rock solid rigidity while making critical measurements.
The Level Arm is made of ½” x 3/4″ x 3 3/8″ aircraft quality aluminum, hard anodized for durability [hardness equal to sapphire]. The arm is spring loaded so that it automatically levels itself for precise measuring – it never goes out of alignment! The level Arm glides through sawdust with ease and never clogs up.
The Level Arm is also designed to accommodate a Depth Gauge Rod. The Depth Gauge Rod allows you to measure things like blind holes, mortises and dado cut depths easily and accurately.
The included precision Dial Indicator will give you machine shop accuracy [1/1000 inches] capabilities for all your machine alignment, calibration and setups.
The Classic Manual is very comprehensive and richly illustrated with over 60 pictures.
As a new proud owner, you will have your MasterGage/Classic personalized with your name engraved on a solid brass nameplate – free of charge.
The Classic also features a permanently embedded red medallion metal disk “Birthplate”, laser etched with the year it was built.
The MasterGage/Classic can accept many specially designed Accessories. You can customize your Classic to your individual needs.
The MasterGage/Classic comes with a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee PLUS a Lifetime Guarantee Policy on materials and workmanship, including the Dial Indicator.
All parts are precision made and interchangeable, a part made last year will fit a Classic made today, next year and years to come! If a part is lost or damaged, it can be quickly replaced by our factory.
