About this item

Alright machinists and workshop folks, this 8-pair precision parallel set is seriously quality stuff. Made from fine tool steel that's been stress-relieved to prevent distortion, then precision ground and hardened - these aren't your cheap import tools. The set includes pairs in 1/2 x 7/8, 1/2 x 1, 1/2 x 1 1/8, 1/2 x 1-1/4, 1/2 x 1-3/8, 1/2 x 1-1/2, 1/2 x 1-5/8, and 1/2 x 1-3/4 inch sizes, all 6 inches long. The hardness is case hardened to RC 55-62 on the top and bottom sides, which means they can handle serious workshop use without wearing down. The holes drilled through them make handling and setup so much easier - no more fumbling with slippery parallels. I've been using mine for layout work and as setup standards in the machine shop, and the precision is impressive - they're parallel to within 0.0003 on the top and bottom sides. They come in this durable plastic case that keeps them organized and protected when not in use. The finish is smooth with sharp, clean edges that haven't chipped or damaged despite regular use. If you're tired of parallels that aren't truly parallel or that lose their accuracy over time, this set is worth the investment. They've become essential in my workshop for everything from milling operations to inspection setups. For the serious machinist or toolmaker, these parallels deliver the accuracy and durability you need for precision work day after day.
