Overview
A machinist setting up a part checks small variations with this indicator, reading from a one inch black face. The dial marking gives equal travel either side of zero.
Fine division suits tight alignment work. The model number field shows an error and the listed weight is not usable, so the listing is not fully reliable. Mounting is not described.
Who it's for
A toolroom user checking centering and runout will use the fine graduation. A general shop user wanting to measure larger travel should choose a standard dial indicator.
Pros and cons
- Lever type for sweeping surfaces
- Black face is easy to read
- Mounting not described
- Model number field shows an error
- Listed weight is not usable
Performance notes
Reading motion across its contact tip makes it suit sweeping a bore or face. The balanced scale shows deviation either way from zero. Accuracy is not stated.
