Here is a Starrett No. 284 screw thread pitch gage that is in excellent condition. It has been used??? Obviously not very much. You may find a few very minor cosmetic imperfections but nothing that will hinder its usefulness. It will work perfectly for you! I guarantee it! The original red protective cardboard box has done a very good job of protecting this tool. It has some wear on it from doing its job. It is still solid and it will continue to protect your gage for many years to come. Please look at all of the photographs as they can help describe the condition of this screw pitch gage much better than I can. This American made tool is ready to go to work immediately and would make a great addition to any toolbox.
