Description
Product Overview
Proper machine leveling is the foundational requirement for any precision machine shop. When setting up large equipment like a VMC or a long-bed engine lathe, a small level simply won’t give you the footprint required to check the span accurately. The FSK 300mm Precision Machinist Level is a heavy-duty, professional-grade Japanese layout tool designed specifically for large-scale machine installation and alignment.
- Massive 300mm Footprint: At 300mm (approx. 12 inches) in length, this is a substantial, heavy-duty level. It provides an excellent, long reference span, making it the ideal size for bridging wide lathe ways, setting up large machining centers, and verifying expansive milling machine tables.
- Highly Sensitive Main Vial: The primary glass vial is engineered for high sensitivity, allowing you to detect minor deviations in your machine’s geometry so you can adjust your leveling feet accordingly.
- Heavy Cast Iron Construction: The body is forged from heavy, structurally stable cast iron to ensure the level does not warp or flex under its own weight, maintaining its straightness over decades of shop use.
Condition
Used (Working Condition / Shows Visible Wear).
This is a genuine, heavily built shop tool that has seen active industrial duty. We believe in total transparency regarding our used metrology tools:
- Cosmetic & Surface Condition: The level functions as intended, but it does show distinct cosmetic wear. The machined underside features visible patina, discoloration, and light surface scratches. While these marks are visible, the tool remains a highly capable and massive piece of Japanese cast iron, perfectly suited for heavy machinery alignment where absolute laboratory cosmetics are not required.
