What to consider before choosing
Mounting interface
Identify the exact indicator, test indicator or probe and its stem, back or dovetail attachment.
Reach and stiffness
Specify the contact location, working height and available clearance. Keep the support arrangement suitable for the measurement sensitivity.
Base and workpiece
Describe the mounting surface and component support. Select magnetic, suction or table construction accordingly.
Frequently asked questions
Will a magnetic base work on every surface?
A magnetic support requires a suitable ferromagnetic mounting surface. Specify the actual surface and consider a table or other support arrangement when needed.
Does a stand include the indicator shown in the photograph?
Product photos may show an assembled application. Confirm whether the quotation includes the stand, instrument, holders and contacts or a defined set.
Can I use one holder for plunger and lever indicators?
Check each instrument’s attachment. Stem, dovetail and back-mount interfaces may require different rods, clamps or adapters.
How do I specify the required support?
Provide the instrument model, mounting interface, working height, reach, contact position, base surface and any workpiece-support requirement.
