Linear displacement
Measure movement along the plunger axis. Align the measuring spindle with the displacement direction to minimise cosine error.

Dial & Digital Indicators
Compare Mahr plunger-type dial and digital indicators for displacement, dimensional comparison and fixture-based checks. Select travel, reading increment, mounting and accessories together.
What can you measure?
Comparative height and thickness
Measure dimensional deviation from a reference set with a master or gauge blocks. Use a measuring stand and a stable reference surface.
Radial and axial run-out
Measure indicator variation as a component rotates about an established axis. Use radial contact for a cylindrical surface and axial contact for an end face.

Ranges refer to specific variants or sets. Confirm the exact model, configuration and accessories with your quotation. Display resolution is not a statement of measurement accuracy.
What to consider before choosing
Travel
Allow enough movement for the feature and setup variation.
Mounting
Match the stem, contact tip and stand to the fixture. MarTool 1075 E has an 8 mm mounting shaft and M2.5 contact thread.
Readout
Choose the graduation or resolution in relation to the tolerance and the complete measurement system.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the indicator travel and resolution?
Choose enough travel for the dimension change and setup movement, then assess the resolution and error limit against the tolerance. For example, both MarTool 1075 E variants have 12.5 mm travel, but the 0.01 mm and 0.001 mm versions have different error limits.
Is a measuring stand included with the indicator?
Specify the indicator and stand as separate items unless the quotation explicitly includes a complete set. Provide the mounting position, required reach and available base surface so a suitable stand can be selected.
Can I use the indicator in an existing inspection fixture?
Check the stem size, contact-tip thread, travel, measuring direction and available clearance. Send the existing indicator model or a photograph of the fixture so mounting and contact compatibility can be checked.
