What Is the J-Series -10?
A compact way to bring the part to the measurement.
The compact J-Series is different because the gage body is organized around comparator and surface-plate inspection rather than the longer base architecture used by many other Universal Punch concentricity gages.
The three -10 configurations share the small-diameter size class while giving the inspection team different physical arrangements for the way the gage will be placed, supported, and used with the measuring system.
Model selection should still begin with the actual print. Universal Punch can review the part diameter, length, support lands, feature being measured, indicator access, tolerance, and required calibration documentation before the final configuration is quoted.
Current naming note
JLS-10 vs. JSLP-10
Legacy catalog literature identifies the slim model as JLS-10. The 2025 parts list uses JSLP-10 and also lists JSLP-10C. This page keeps the JLS-10 customer-facing family name while preserving the current parts-list terminology for engineering and quoting reference.
Choose the Physical Configuration
Three ways to configure the compact -10 platform.
The J-Series model choice is primarily about how the compact gaging platform fits the inspection environment.
JLP-10
Low-Profile Comparator GageA compact comparator gage configuration that retains the -10 support and roller architecture in a low-profile format.
J-10
Surface Plate or Comparator GageThe J-10 configuration is intended for a compact inspection station where the gage is used with a surface plate or comparator arrangement.
Low-Profile Architecture
Same size class. Different physical arrangement.
The JLS/JSLP, JLP, and J-10 configurations are all built around the compact -10 inspection class, but the body and base arrangement change to suit the intended comparator or surface-plate setup.
The current parts list separately identifies -10SLP, -10LP, and -10 block sizes and also assigns model-specific arm-yoke assemblies to JSLP-10, JLP-10, and J-10.
That is why the final choice should not be made from diameter alone. The physical setup, indicator position, workholding clearance, and operator access can all matter.
Important: the configuration image shown here is a website comparison visual, not a controlled engineering drawing. Use the current Universal Punch drawing or engineering confirmation for final dimensional requirements.

*Documentation discrepancy:
the legacy catalog and the 2025 general-data table publish the compact J-Series family at up to 4 in / 102 mm part length,
while the separate -10SLP / -10LP / -10 block-size drawing lists up to 3 in / 76 mm.
This page uses the broader published family value for model overview only. Confirm the exact part-length capacity of the selected configuration before quoting or ordering.
How the Universal System Is Specified
Model. Rollers. Indicator & accessories.
Universal Punch defines the Concentricity Gaging System around three primary selections. Keeping those choices separate allows the J-Series setup to be matched to the actual part instead of treating it as one fixed product.
01
Select the J-Series configuration
Choose JLS/JSLP-10, JLP-10, or J-10 based on the intended comparator or surface-plate arrangement.
02
Select the main rollers
Match the support geometry to the part diameter, available cylindrical lands, feature clearance, and inspection objective.
03
Select the indicator & accessories
Confirm indicator style, mounting, stops, drive components, calibration, and any application-specific accessories.

J-10 Surface-Plate Configuration
A compact inspection station without the long base.
The current parts list specifically describes the J-10 as a Surface Plate or Comparator Gage / 3–25 mm. That makes it a logical starting point when the inspection team wants the roller-supported J-Series architecture in a compact surface-plate arrangement.
The indicator and stand should be selected around the actual measurement feature, available probe access, and required resolution.
- Compact footprint for metrology and incoming-inspection stations
- Roller-supported part rotation for concentricity and runout inspection
- Indicator position can be configured around the required measurement location
- Send the print so Universal Punch can confirm the final gage, roller, indicator, and accessory setup
Published System Accuracy Classes
Specify the accuracy class with the application.
Universal Punch documentation separates the concentricity gaging system into Standard Black and Precision Gold classifications. The final J-Series order should state the required accuracy, indicator resolution, calibration documentation, and traceability.
Published system classification equivalent to 0.00016 in. Confirm the exact model and delivered calibration requirement when ordering.
Published for eligible -10 and -20 model classes, equivalent to 0.000079 in. Confirm availability for the selected J-Series configuration.

J-Series -10 FAQ
Selection questions, answered clearly.
They are compact -10 size-class configurations in the Universal Punch Concentricity Gaging System. The JLS-10 is a slim low-profile comparator configuration, the JLP-10 is a low-profile comparator gage, and the J-10 is a surface-plate or comparator configuration.
Universal Punch catalog and general-data literature publish a 1/8 inch to 1 inch (3–25 mm) diameter range and up to 4 inches (102 mm) part length for the compact J-Series -10 family. A separate block-size drawing lists up to 3 inches (76 mm) for -10SLP, -10LP and -10 blocks, so final application capacity should be confirmed from the actual configuration and part print.
The principal difference is the compact mounting and comparator architecture. The JLS-10 is the slim low-profile arrangement, the JLP-10 is the low-profile comparator arrangement, and the J-10 is the surface-plate or comparator arrangement.
Universal Punch legacy catalog literature uses JLS-10, while the 2025 parts list uses JSLP-10 and also lists JSLP-10C. This page preserves the JLS-10 customer-facing name requested for the family while noting the current parts-list nomenclature for quoting and engineering review.
Universal Punch defines the Concentricity Gaging System around three selections: select the gage model, select the main rollers, then select the indicator and other accessories. Final configuration should match the actual part geometry, support lands, measurement location and tolerance.
The current parts list identifies Full Plain, Half Plain, Quarter Plain, Full Plain Zero, Half Plain Zero, Quarter Plain Zero and Thin Zero Plain main roller sets for -10 models, along with multiple top-roller and special-contact options.
Universal Punch documentation lists Standard Black gages at better than or equal to 4 microns and Precision Gold availability for eligible -10 and -20 model classes at better than or equal to 2 microns. Confirm the exact J-Series model, indicator resolution, calibration and documentation requirements when ordering.
The 2025 parts list includes variable-speed motor assemblies for J-SLP and J-10 configurations and also lists JLP-10 drive-system components. Final compatibility and the exact powered-drive configuration should be confirmed with Universal Punch engineering.
