Fowler 52-155-007-0 Indicator Transfer Comparator Gage Stand

Product Description

The FOWLER 52-155-007-0 is a fine adjustment indicator transfer comparator gage stand designed for precision measurement setups in metrology, inspection, and quality control environments. Built from steel, this stand provides a stable, rigid foundation for mounting dial indicators and comparators during comparative measurement work. The rectangular base measures 2.2 inches in length by 1.5 inches in width, with a base height of 0.7 inches. The post rises 7 inches, and the overall height reaches 7.7 inches. The fine adjustment arm mechanism allows controlled, incremental positioning of the indicator for accurate contact with the workpiece surface.

This stand is used in machine shops, manufacturing inspection lines, and tool rooms where repeatable indicator positioning is required. It is suited for surface plate work, fixture checking, and comparative dimensional inspection tasks. The stand ships with a holder included, making it ready for most standard dial indicator mounting arrangements. It does not include a dial indicator, anvil, or require field calibration prior to use. Machinists, quality technicians, and metrologists are the primary users of this type of stand.

Key Features

• Fine adjustment arm style for precise, controlled indicator positioning
• Steel construction provides rigidity and durability in shop environments
• Rectangular base (2.2 inches x 1.5 inches) for stable footing on surface plates and flat references
• 7-inch post height with 7-11/16-inch overall reach for flexible indicator placement
• Holder included - mounts standard dial indicators without additional hardware
• No anvil or dial indicator included - compatible with separately sourced indicators

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for indicator transfer comparator gage stand applications using conventional dial indicator holders with fine adjustment arm configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or quality technicians and requires no special tools beyond those used to secure the dial indicator in the holder. Ensure the base reference surface is clean and flat before placing the stand to avoid measurement error introduced by debris or burrs. Do not overtighten the indicator clamp, as this can distort the indicator stem and affect accuracy. Follow the indicator manufacturer's mounting guidelines for correct stem engagement depth.
