The Starrett S579HZ set of six telescoping gauges measures 5/16 to 6" holes, slots, and recesses in woodworking, metalworking, machining, layout, and pattern-making applications. The four gauges measure from 5/16 to 1/2", 1/2 to 3/4", 3/4 to 1-1/4", 1-1/4 to 2-1/8", 2-1/8 to 3-1/2", and 3-1/2 to 6". Each gauge has two spring-tensioned telescoping plungers for uniform contact pressure. The self-centering handles are rigidly attached to contact plungers. Five handles measure 2-3/8" and one handle measures 3-1/4" in length. A lock at the end of the handle secures the gauge width for measurement with a micrometer (sold separately). The gauge set comes in a protective case for storage.

The L.S. Starrett Company manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology and testing equipment, and saw blade products. The company, founded in 1880, is headquartered in Athol, MA.
