Your cart is empty.The Starrett extension dividers are exceptionally rigid although light in weight and easy to handle. The head is made of forged steel. The hardened points are well shaped and bent slightly so they can be rotated and brought closer together if desired. The sturdy construction of the joint, combined with the quadrant that projects through the legs and is frictionally locked by a knurled clamp nut, eliminates side deflection of the legs. A quadrant adjusting nut permits fine-adjustments for close measurements. A check nut located between the legs firmly locks the legs after proper adjustment has been made. This feature prevents the legs from moving in and out with the grain on wood when scribing, or sliding off rough spots when scribing on metal.

If you appreciate quality, and want to buy something high quality and never buy it again, and you can afford it; these Starrett 85B dividers are for you. These dividers are made like they used to make things in the USA. They are like a work of art in their craftsmanship and you can pass them down to your kids(not that they’ll know what to do with them) Starrett thought of everything when they designed these dividers, the points can be traded out for a #2 pencil, fine tuning adjustments, super solid construction. They just don’t make stuff like this anymore. Expensive but so worth it!
