Fowler FOW99991C Dial Indicator Base Kit 0.03 in

Product Description

The FOWLER FOW99991C is a dial indicator base kit designed for precise dimensional measurement in trade and industrial applications. The kit includes a 0.030 inch test indicator with free points and a universal holder, giving technicians a complete setup for surface, runout, and alignment checks. The dial face features a 0-15-0 reading with a black dial, 1.25 inch diameter, and a graduation resolution of 0.0005 inches per division. With a maximum measurement range of 0.030 inches, this kit is suited for fine tolerance work where repeatability and quick setup matter. Licensed professionals and skilled tradespeople in machining, HVAC equipment alignment, and mechanical service installations will find this a practical bench and field tool.

This kit is used in situations where small positional deviations must be measured and recorded, such as shaft runout checks, surface plate inspection, and mechanical component alignment. The universal holder accommodates a wide range of mounting positions, making it adaptable to workbenches, magnetic bases, or inspection fixtures. It is equally suited to shop environments and field service calls where a portable, self-contained indicator setup is needed. The Fowler indicator and import holder combination provides functional versatility at a compact form factor.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this dial indicator kit is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, HVAC equipment technicians, or mechanical service professionals. Secure the universal holder firmly to the mounting surface or magnetic base before taking measurements to avoid drift. Ensure the indicator spindle contacts the measured surface at a consistent angle to maintain reading accuracy. Do not exceed the stated measurement range, as overtravel can damage the indicator mechanism.
