Product Benefits
- 1 inch measuring range: with 0.001" resolution for precise imperial readings.
- 9.2mm (3/8”) diameter stem: For secure mounting in holders, stands or fixtures.
- Large 60mm dial: Features a multi-revolution dial with two hands: a primary indicator and a smaller revolution counter for reading full rotations.
- Continuous dial graduations: Clear, easy-to-read scale with numbers increasing around the dial for straightforward measurement reading.
- Optional Lug Back: Available separately to provide an alternative mounting solution, offering greater install configurations.
- Adjustable limit markers: Easily set upper and lower tolerance limit hands to serve as a visual “go/no-go” gauge, ideal for quick, repetitive measurement tasks.
- Bezel rotation lock: The locking screw securely holds the dial in position once zeroed, preventing accidental movement during use.

- Hard storage case: Provides durable protection for the dial indicator during transport and storage, helping prevent damage and maintain accuracy.
Application
Dial gauges are versatile precision instruments widely used in industrial and engineering applications. They are essential for measuring small linear distances and detecting variations in height, flatness, or roundness. Commonly used in machining, tool setup, and quality control, dial gauges help ensure components meet strict tolerances. They are ideal for checking alignment, runout, and deflection in rotating parts, and verifying surface consistency during inspection. Dial gauges provide reliable readings for both static and dynamic measurements, including deflection, displacement and movement.
