Description
The GAR C9 surface roughness comparator is a professional-grade inspection tool designed for accurate surface texture evaluation in industrial and manufacturing environments. As a trusted Gar surface finish comparator, the C9 allows operators to visually and tactilely assess surface finishes by comparing workpieces directly against nine replicated cast surface specimens. These specimens range from 20 to 900 microinches, providing a wide evaluation range for diverse surface finishing requirements. Manufactured as a Gar microfinish comparator, the C-9 is an electroformed nickel duplicate of actual cast surfaces, ensuring faithful reproduction of real-world surface textures. Its corrosion-resistant construction guarantees durability in demanding shop environments, maintaining accuracy over extended use. The surface roughness comparator features a convenient rectangular form factor measuring 4-1/2" x 3-1/4", making it easy to handle and position alongside workpieces during inspection. The C-9 microfinish comparator for surface texture evaluation works by allowing the operator to slide the scale so the desired roughness rectangle is adjacent to the part being examined. A simple fingernail drag test across surfaces at right angles to tool marks confirms whether finishes are identical, making the inspection process both intuitive and reliable. Supplied in a protective leatherette case, the GAR C9 includes comprehensive engineering data and instructions for immediate field use. The surface roughness scale GAR C9 cast comparator is made entirely in the USA, reflecting the highest standards of manufacturing quality. Weighing only 0.22 lbs, it is a lightweight yet robust solution for quality control professionals. This Gar microfinish comparator is ideal for foundries, machine shops, and quality inspection departments. The surface roughness comparator C9 is widely used in aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing for reliable surface finish verification. Its ease of use and proven accuracy make it an indispensable tool in any precision inspection toolkit.
