Starrett 2700 digital electronic indicators have true AGD Group 1 dimensions

L.S. Starrett Co.

The L.S. Starrett Co. has introduced a line of digital electronic indicators conforming to true AGD (American Gage Design) Group 1 dimensions. Starrett 2700 electronic indicators feature a 1.70-in.-dia., 270-degree rotating bezel, allowing different user viewing preferences. The gauges are available in two displays: a single LCD numeric IQ model with low-battery warning and programmable ratios, and a numeric/analog AD model showing the two displays simultaneously.

The gauges feature 0.400-in. travel, accuracy of ±0.0001 in. on the F2715 models, and accuracy of ±0.0002 in. on the F2714 models. The gauges can store and view 200 readings internally. Stored readings can be downloaded with included software and a USB-style cable.
