Mitutoyo 215-153-10 Granite Surface Plate Stand with Post

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 215-153-10 is a granite-base indicator stand designed to hold a dial indicator or similar precision measurement tool over a surface plate. The fixed upright post style provides a rigid, stable column for consistent gauge positioning during inspection and quality-control work. The granite base material resists corrosion, maintains dimensional stability, and provides a flat, accurate reference surface. The stand reaches an overall height of 400mm with a post height of 320mm, making it suitable for inspecting workpieces of varying heights on a surface plate. A holder is included. This stand is used by machinists, quality technicians, and metrology professionals.

This stand is suited for precision inspection applications in machine shops, quality labs, and manufacturing environments. It pairs with a surface plate setup where a dial indicator or test indicator is used to check flatness, runout, or part geometry. The granite base provides inherent vibration damping and a non-magnetic, non-reactive working surface. The fine adjustment feature allows controlled, incremental positioning of the indicator arm for accurate measurements without disturbing the setup.

Key Features

• Granite base material for dimensional stability and corrosion resistance
• Fixed upright post arm style for rigid indicator support
• Fine adjustment mechanism for precise indicator positioning
• 400mm overall height with 320mm post height accommodates a wide range of workpiece sizes
• Holder included for dial indicator or similar probe
• Stand maintenance is simplified by accessible component design

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision indicator stand for use with surface plate inspection setups accepting a standard post-mount holder for dial indicators or test indicators.

Installation Notes

Setup is performed by metrology technicians or machinists familiar with surface plate inspection procedures. Place the stand on a clean, level surface plate and secure the indicator in the included holder before taking measurements. Avoid dropping or impacting the granite base, as granite is rigid but brittle and can chip or crack. Follow shop calibration procedures and applicable quality-system standards when using this stand in a formal inspection environment.
