What is the case size and color of this product?

You won't find it on the website, it comes rubber banded to a piece of wood. Mine arrived very well insulated and packaged.

How can I find out if these are certified?

It is not my knowledge that there is any certification.

Does each edge have the same level of precision?

There is no difference in the accuracy of either edge There is nothing distinguishing one edge from the other on the straightedge.

This product offers great precision at an economic price
4/5

Products from Starrett are always of the highest The extra charge is well worth it. The rails I purchased were intended to act as reference rails for my Coordinate Measuring Machine and they were much more precise than they were supposed to be. There is less than an 0000 error over a wide range of.

A slight improvement has been made here. It was mentioned that the packaging of this product was poor in some reviews. A slight improvement has been made here. My package came with a rubber band attached to a piece of wood, probably to keep it safe during The narrow faces were perfectly straight, but it was warped by 0. When I checked mine on a granite surface plate, I found the warp was 0. 0. I went in the opposite direction with "006". Even though it doesn't matter because the faces you use are straight, I still didn't expect any imperfection in a Starrett product. Still, I found it to be effective, as I could check the flatness of a cylinder block with it.

Shipping was incredibly well done, the product was well made and packaged! It was extremely well packaged, so I was worried it might get damaged as it was being shipped
5/5

As it turned out, this was not true. Hopefully I will be using this product for many years to come.

Straight edges are what they're called
4/5

We were thinking if Starrett had debugged the edges after grinding, it sure would have been nice. I think there's a problem with poor quality control.

I find the packaging to be terrible
3/5

However, the edged was burred and I had to remove them with a stone, but otherwise, it exists in a very flat and straight state.

A professional quality product

There are no better precision measuring tools than those from Starrett. Do not drop it or chip the edges. Handle it with care.
