Starrett 83032 Vinyl Surface Plate Cover 72x48 Inch

Product Description

The STARRETT 83032 is a vinyl inspection surface plate cover designed to protect precision surface plates from dust, debris, and accidental damage when not in active use. Measuring 72 inches long by 48 inches wide, this cover fits large-format surface plates commonly found in quality control labs, tool rooms, and inspection departments. The black vinyl construction provides a durable, flexible barrier that resists tearing and wipes clean easily. Proper protection of a surface plate preserves its flatness grade and extends its calibrated service life, making this cover a standard accessory for any shop that depends on accurate layout and inspection work.

This cover is suited for use over granite, cast iron, or composite surface plates in industrial, manufacturing, and metrology environments. It is typically deployed in quality control rooms and inspection stations where surface plates see regular use and require protection between measurement sessions. The 72 inch by 48 inch footprint accommodates plates of that nominal size and is handled by metrology technicians, quality inspectors, and toolroom machinists.

Avoid dragging the cover across the plate surface to prevent scratching the lapped finish. This accessory is handled by quality technicians and toolroom personnel in accordance with standard metrology lab procedures.
