Approx. Height of 5513 mid case neck?

[RickFlorida]

Hello.   I know the approx. outer diameter of the 5513 case neck is 28.2mm

 

But does anyone know what the height of the case neck is in mm?  In other words, how much of the neck goes into the crystal?  

 

Thank you.

If no one had a gen. 5513 naked mid case to measure, just a cartel 5513 mid case neck height should be close enough.   I would appreciate it.

Measured Yuki 5512/13 and IG44 1680 cases...all are 1.25mm high.  Probably oem spec.

A DW case measured a hair lower.  Unknown cartel was 1.0mm.  Not all cartel cases will be the same because of different case makers.

All case necks measure 28.2mm except the DW at 28.15.  Have seen a couple DW at 28.12, none at 28.2.  All Yuki and MBK case necks have been 28.2mm on the dot.  Did not measure MBK case neck height because they have crystals/bezels mounted.  Yuki, IG44, and MBK are all very high quality.  DW is high quality but a bit out of spec.  All have very good fit and finish. 

Most cartel cases are good for the price in my experience but lug holes are often too high or too low and can be close to the edge when drilled to 1.25/1.3mm...they are hit or miss.  A 1.0mm high case neck should make no difference under normal conditions.

Thank you kind sir!   I'm doing some repairs on a case so I thought I better check the height.  1 to 1.25mm sounds right then, I was just worried they were supposed to be higher to give enough surface area mating between crystal and neck.   I guess it only takes a little bit to make a good fit.

 

 

Thanks again.
