It merged with the George Scherr company to become Scherr-Tumico. Scherr-Tumico was never widely known like Starrett or Mitutoyo because they concentrated on domestic US sales and mostly to the US government. Their tools have always been the equal of of the other US makers such as Brown and Sharpe or Starrett and had prices to match. \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eScherr-Tumico closed in 2018. \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBecause the majority of their production was for the US government and military it was made to very strict standards of quality and precision. \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThis combination square set includes a 4R Hardened Rule graduated in 8ths, 16ths, 32nds and 64ths. Included heads are the Hardened Steel ( not cast-iron like most combination squares) Square Head and Center Head. This hardened set was the premier line that Scherr-Tumico made. \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe box was only opened for photos and it is in terrible condition, the plastic tray that holds the square has also perished and is falling apart.  Luckily the box has done its job and the square is new and perfect. Both heads have the machined surfaces covered in a light layer of packing grease that is easily removed.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThis is a premium quality beautifully made set!\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scherr-Tumico","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46901502771396,"sku":null,"price":242.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/1778\/7844\/files\/IMG_2191_a52a740d-8db8-4e79-9a90-d9bd51d7a9bf.jpg?v=1790826609","url":"https:\/\/cardontools.com\/products\/new-old-stock-scherr-tumico-usa-made-12-4r-3pc-hardened-combination-square-set-incl-square-head-and-center-head","provider":"Cardon Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
