Cast Iron Straight Edge

We are a well known name engaged in offering Triangular Straight Edge made from high quality raw material. These premium quality edges are widely appreciated in the market for their tough construction and non-corrosive properties. Extensively used for the purpose of trueing, spotting and reconditioning. The reconditioning is undertaken for dovetailed guide ways of machine tools, slides and more. Following are some of the essential specifications of our range:

• Made from close grained plain cast iron conforming to Grade FG:220 of IS : 210
• Castings stress relieved
• Provided with suitable M.S. handles on either side
• Offered in two grades of accuracy as under
• Grade – 1: having at least 25 bearing spots in 25 x 25 mm area, maximum error in specified angle between working surface being within ± 5’
• Grade – 2: having at least 20 bearing spots in 25 x 25 mm area, minimum error in specified angle between working surfaces being within ± 10’.

JASH Cast Iron Straight Edges are widely used for setting up and leveling machinery and for checking and spotting bearing surfaces during hand scraping operations.  Properly supported, they may be used with various indicating devices to check surface flatness of large machined areas like Surface Tables, Machine Tables and Bed, Machine ways etc.    

Salient Features:

• Offered in two types viz Bow shaped or Camel Back Type and I-section or Parallel type, in standard sizes generally as per IS : 5268
• Bow shaped straight edges are provided with pads on their bow for supporting Engineer’s level.
• Made from close grained plain cast iron conforming to Grade FG: 220 of IS: 210.
• Castings stress relieved.
• Offered in three grades of accuracies viz Grades 0, 1 and 2. Standard sizes, dimensions, flatness and parallelism tolerance are as stated in table.
• Straightness accuracy checked by Electronic level. Plot of the working surface contour is furnished.
• Hand scraped surface finish for Grade 0 and 1 Straight Edges. Smooth machined / ground / scraped surface finish for Grade 2 straight edges.
• High spots uniformly distributed. Proportion of bearing area of the working surface not less than 20 percent for Grades 0 and 1 straight edges and not less than 10 percent for Grade 2 straight edges.
• Flatness of side faces: Any 300 mm length flat within 25 microns for Grades 0 and 1 and within 50 microns for Grade 2, subject to the maximum tolerance on flatness over the whole length, as under. For straight edges up to and including 4000 mm length, 50 microns for Grades 0 and 1 and 100 microns for Grade 2. For straight edges longer than 4000 mm – 100 microns for Grades 0 and 1 and 200 microns for Grade 2.
• Squareness of working surface and side faces when checked with side face laid on Grade 1 surface plate. For Grades 0 and 1 : within 8 microns per 25 mm For Grade 2 : within 15 microns per 25 mm.
• Parallelism of side faces For Grades 0 and 1 : Not exceeding 30 microns per 300 mm and 60 microns over the whole length. For Grade 2 : Not exceeding 60 microns per 300 mm and 120 microns over the whole length.
• Supplied with plywood covers for protecting working faces and edges.
• Two numbers Grade 1 parallel straight edges of the same length can be offered as matched pair at extra cost, ensuring equality of overall depth within the tolerance on parallelism for the respective length of straight edge.
• Actual dimensions of straight edges may be even more than those stated in the table below.
• No. two straight edges of the same length will have any of the dimensions exactly the same, except in case of two numbers parallel straight edges made specially as a matched pair wherein only the overall depth shall be equal within the tolerance on parallelism for the respective length.
• Sizes offered from 600mm to 6000mm.
