Skidded Drive Surface Roughness Gages

Whether you are looking for robust instrument to measure surface finish on the shop floor or a low cost unit for straight forward applications, skidded drive surface roughness gages offer a great blend of capability and practicality. The design of these gages utilize the skid to serve two purposes, protect the stylus tip and provide a datum reference for measurement.

While less costly than their skidless counterparts, today’s skidded gages offer advanced processors capable of analyzing dozens of different parameters, programmability for advanced applications, and the ability to interface with data collection and SPC systems. On top of a cost advantage, skidded drive units are more robust than skidless units meaning that they can be used on the shop floor and even taken directly to the work piece.
