Fowler 52-580-015-0 Comparator Gage Stand Steel Rectangular Base

Product Description

The FOWLER 52-580-015-0 is a steel comparator gage stand designed for precision measurement setups in inspection and quality control environments. Standing 8.5 inches total height with a 6.5-inch post, this stand provides a stable, rigid platform for mounting dial indicators and comparator gages. The rectangular steel base measures 6 inches long by 4 inches wide by 1.5 inches high, delivering the footprint and mass needed to minimize vibration and movement during measurement. A fine adjustment mechanism allows controlled vertical positioning of the holder. A holder is included. Licensed metrology technicians and quality control inspectors are the primary users of this equipment.

This comparator gage stand is suited for use on inspection benches, surface plates, and machine shop measurement stations in both production and tool room environments. It handles standard comparator gage and dial indicator mounting tasks where repeatable, stable positioning is required. The quick positioning and adjustment feature reduces setup time when moving between measurement points or changing part fixtures. No anvil or dial indicator is included with this stand.
