Starrett Crystal Pink surface Place

• Accurate for use in metrology laboratories and wear resistant for use in
  abrasive shop environmentsThe 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
  significantly reduces wear on the surface plate and the instruments used on it
• Fine micro-finish, combined with the natural voids in the surface, prevents
  wringing and provides a velvety-smooth tool action

Wear Life

• Non-quartz-bearing granite in average daily use requires resurfacing about
  once a year, while Crystal Pink ® plates used in these same plants have required resurfacing only once every three to five years, on average.

Starrett Crystal Pink:

• Meets or exceeds U.S. Federal Specification GGG-P-463c for flatness
• Great surface hardness and 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 and the tools used on it
• Quality and economy combined Comparable to black granite plates while
  outwearing them as much as 5 to 1
