Starrett 71920 Height Gage Scriber Carrier

Product Description

The STARRETT 71920 is a replacement scriber carrier designed for use with height gages. The carrier holds and positions the scriber attachment on the gage column, allowing accurate layout work and surface-plate measurement. It is a direct-fit replacement component intended for technicians and machinists maintaining precision measurement tools in industrial, shop, or calibration environments. At 0.5 pounds, it is a lightweight replacement part that restores full function to a worn or damaged height gage assembly without requiring replacement of the entire instrument.

This scriber carrier is a replacement part suited for machine shops, tool rooms, metrology labs, and manufacturing facilities where STARRETT height gages are in regular use. It supports layout, inspection, and scribing operations on surface plates and is installed when the original carrier is worn, damaged, or lost.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tool-room technician familiar with precision measurement instruments.

Follow the gage manufacturer's assembly instructions to properly seat and secure the carrier on the column.
