Description
#83 Starrett "Yankee" Dividers are made from a high-grade steel and well finished. The legs are made of flat stock and are very durable. The fulcrum stud is hardened and has a smooth bearing surface. The bow spring, although flexible, is exceedingly strong to assure reliability. Available in two sizes: 4" legs, 5 1/2" overall; 6" legs, 7 3/4" overall.
The divider features an automatic-closing spring nut, designed for making fast, positive adjustments. The threads of the nut firmly engage the screw at the slightest pressure from the leg. When the pressure is withdrawn, the nut automatically releases itself, sliding freely over the screw. This feature saves time in opening and closing.
