Mahr Pocket Surf IV Roughness Gage

Fits shop-floor and lab roughness checks where you need a pocket-sized Mahr skidded stylus gage for Ra, Ry, Rmax, or Rz with MarConnect data output.

Key advantages

Parameters — Selectable Ra, Rmax/Ry, Rz; read all parameters after the traverse
Traverse / cutoff — Measuring length 1×, 3×, or 5× the 0.8 mm / 0.030 in cutoff (ISO/JIS sampling length selection 1–5)
Probe positions — Four locking positions: axial or 90°, 180°, 270°; use horizontal, vertical, or upside down
Stylus / force — Art. 2191800: 10 µm / 0.0004 in stylus; measuring force 15 mN; piezoelectric skidded probe
Data / power — MarConnect RS-232C and USB; LCD in µm or µin; replaceable 9 V battery

Incoming and machine-side Ra/Rz checks on production parts.
Shop-floor or lab roughness where a compact skidded probe reaches ID/OD surfaces.
Simple data logging via MarConnect USB or RS-232 cable.

Art. / stylus tip — 2191800 = 10 µm tip with PMD-90101 specimen; flyer also lists 2191802 = 5 µm tip — state which tip you need
Parameters — Ra, Ry, Rmax, Rz only (not a 31-parameter PS 10 class instrument)
Cutoff — Fixed λc 0.8 mm / 0.030 in; choose 1, 3, or 5 sampling lengths
Cables — Optional MarConnect cables: RS-232C 4346020, USB 4346023

Ordering when you need Rpk/Rk/Rvk or PDF storage — Pocket Surf IV is Ra/Ry/Rmax/Rz class; see MarSurf PS 10 for broader parameter sets
Assuming a skidless probe — this is a tactile skidded piezoelectric probe
Leaving tip radius blank — 10 µm (2191800) vs 5 µm (2191802) changes the tip callout
