Measuring 13\/16 inches in length, this contact point is machined from carbide to provide the hardness and wear resistance required for accurate, repeatable surface plate work. It serves as a direct-contact probe tip, transmitting measurements from the workpiece surface to the height gage's indicating mechanism. Metrology technicians, tool and die makers, and quality control professionals rely on contact points like this one to maintain measurement integrity across high-volume inspection cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis contact point is suited for dimensional inspection work performed on surface plates in tool rooms, machine shops, and quality control environments. It attaches to a height gage to enable precise vertical measurement of part features, scribe-line layout, and comparative gauging operations. The carbide construction is particularly well matched to applications where the contact point sees frequent use against hardened or abrasive workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbide construction for superior wear resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e13\/16 inch length suitable for standard height gage contact point positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with Starrett height gages\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement-ready single-piece packaging for bench stock or field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Starrett height gages as a replacement or spare contact point accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContact point replacement is typically performed by metrology technicians or qualified inspection personnel. Before replacing the contact point, remove the height gage from service and ensure the spindle or contact arm is fully supported to prevent damage. Use the appropriate wrench or driver as specified for the gage model to avoid thread damage when installing or removing the contact point. Handle carbide tips with care to prevent chipping from impact with hard surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessory Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Contact Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 65255\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539417792818,"sku":"65255","price":77.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7f54fbaeb745ae701c8ce561c155cd34.jpg?v=1785839779","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-65255-carbide-height-gage-contact-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
