Machinist’s Parallel Bar Set
Parallel bars are precision-ground spacers used to elevate a workpiece by a known height while maintaining perfect parallelism with the machine table. This set includes five matched pairs made from 1018 steel, each measuring 2-1/2″ long and 1/16″ thick, with the following heights:
1/4″ • 3/8″ • 1/2″ • 5/8″ • 3/4″
Unlike the imported parallels previously offered, these are manufactured in-house by Sherline. Each bar is waterjet cut from 1/16″ 1018 steel, ground to precise height tolerances, and finished with a durable black oxide coating to resist corrosion. This set reflects Sherline’s commitment to accuracy, quality, and American-made craftsmanship.
