Starrett Crystal Pink Surface Plate 18x24

Accurate for use in metrology laboratories and wear resistant for use in abrasive shop environments.

Crystal Pink is the finest, most durable granite surface plate available to industry today. The name is derived from the fact that it has the highest crystalline quartz content of any granite surface plate.

Surface Finish

  • Even distribution of large quartz crystals provides a smooth finish which virtually eliminates wear on the surface plate and the instruments used on it. This fine micro-finish, combined with the natural voids in the surface, prevents wringing & provides a velvety-smooth tool action.

Wear Life

  • Our experience with surface plate performance in customers' plants shows that non-quartz-bearing granite in average daily use requires relapping about once a year. Crystal Pink plates used in these same plants have only required relapping once every three to five years.
  • Meets or exceeds U.S. Federal Specification GGG-P-463C for flatness
  • Great surface hardness & wear resistance – the highest percentage of quartz crystals of any granite plate
  • Smooth, jewel-like quartz bearing points protect accuracy and finish of both the surface & the tools used on it
  • Quality and economy combined
  • Comparable to black granite plates while outwearing them as much as 5 to 1
  • Meets or exceeds 50 lb. per square foot (24kg per 1,000 sq. cm) load bearing specifications. Available in 100 lb. (45kg) test series
