    ENGLISH SR160 OVERVIEW WHAT IT DOES The SR160 is a superior portable surface roughness tester that measures multiple roughness parameters with a 1-button click. Roughness measurement parameters such as Ra, Rz, Rp, Rv and Rt are displayed on a brightly lit intuitive 2.4" LCD color display. Its rechargeable battery operation makes it a convenient way of performing fast, easy and precise on-the-spot measurements in almost any environment and surface.
  • Page 23 ENGLISH KEEPING IT SIMPLE The surface roughness testing philosophy keeps the process simple. It is the perfect tool for any inspector to check surface roughness even in the most demanding applications. • Incoming inspections • Final inspection before shipment • Process control on the production line •...

    1.8IN (45mm) WHAT IS A SKID? The SR160 is a skidded device. The skid guides the pick-up along the workpiece, with the workpiece itself forming the datum for measurement. This method usually eases set-up by reducing the need for leveling. It also reduces the effects of vibration due to a much smaller measuring loop.
  • Page 28 • Suitability – It acts as a filter to remove the highest surface frequencies that are more reliably measured in a controlled environment. Other Starrett instruments use a stylus with a tip radius of 80μin (2μm). This smaller radius coupled with an inductive gage head having low contact force enables analysis of even the smallest surface imperfections.
