TSH Series - Video Cassette Spindle Height Gauges
Tentel Spindle Height Gauge, (TSH, pronounced "TUSH") can help you eliminate the two most common causes of ruined video tapes - edge damage and cassette binding. They are the only diagnostic tools on the market today which can pinpoint mysterious "tape eating" elevator latch and spindle end play problems.
TSH gauges are as simple to use as loading a cassette - simply read the two precision indicators often without removing the top cover.
TSH gauges are precision machined from rigid cast aluminum tool and die plate, simulating ideal cassette dimensions. TSH gauges are factory calibrated and should never require re-calibrating, however a master checking block is included to ensure accuracy.
TSH gauges come complete with a fully illustrated instruction manual, initial supply of spindle correcting shims, and fitted foam lined carrying case. The instruction manual explains the elevator latch check, spindle height, spindle wobble, Z-plane flatness, spindle end play, tape guide post height, and reel table perpendicularity on certain models.
For machines causing tape edge damage, the TSH Gauge is not only the "fastest" test, but the "only" test to locate the problem. Present customers report "amazing speed and problem diagnosis ability".
