Turntable Cartridge Alignment Template 15.5 x 3.5 cm Transparent Acrylic Gauge Thickness 3 mm Two Grids Adjustment of Overhang and Stylus Angle
You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
The cartridge alignment template is a practical tool for anyone who wants to set up their turntable themselves without complicated devices. The gauge is made from transparent acrylic, allowing you to clearly see the grooves of the record, platter, and the stylus itself. With dimensions of 15.5 x 3.5 cm, it comfortably rests on the turntable platter and does not obstruct when working with the tonearm. Using the template, you can adjust the overhang of the stylus and the rotation of the cartridge in the headshell so that the stylus tracks the groove as accurately as possible. A properly aligned cartridge contributes to cleaner sound and gentler playback of vinyl records.
At one end of the gauge, there is a round hole that allows the template to be placed on the spindle, ensuring it remains at a consistent distance from the centre. Printed on the surface is a longitudinal centre line and two dense control grids marked 2.60 and 4.76. Gradually lower the stylus onto the mark in each of the grids and observe whether the body of the cartridge is parallel to the lines of the grid. If it is not, slightly adjust or rotate the cartridge in the headshell and repeat the measurement. Thanks to the transparent material, you can observe the stylus and lines from above and the side. For better visibility, using a flashlight or magnifying glass can help, as slight deviations in the rotation of the cartridge can sometimes be difficult to see with the naked eye. It is advisable to perform measurements on both grids and repeat them if necessary.

Before measuring, place the turntable on a flat surface and check the balance of the tonearm and the tracking force of the stylus according to the manufacturer's instructions. When lowering the stylus onto the template, use a tonearm lift to avoid damaging the needle. After use, wipe the gauge with a dry, soft cloth without chemical agents that could scratch or cloud the acrylic, and store it flat away from direct sunlight. This will keep the surface clean and the lines clearly visible for future adjustments, such as after replacing the cartridge or the entire headshell.
The acrylic template is a simple and affordable way to keep the alignment of your cartridge under your own control. Its thin design, with a thickness of 3 mm, lies steadily on the platter and does not raise the stylus unnecessarily high. It is suitable for new turntables, during cartridge replacement, and for regular checks on older devices. The gauge takes up minimal space in a drawer and is always ready for use. Thanks to the transparent material and clear grids, you can achieve precise alignment quickly and easily, even without prior experience.
