Mitutoyo 901997 Test Indicator Holder

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 901997 is a test indicator holder designed to securely mount and position dial test indicators during precision measurement tasks. The holder provides a stable, rigid platform that keeps the indicator fixed at the correct angle and height, reducing measurement error caused by movement or vibration. It is a standard accessory used in metrology, machine setup, and quality control environments. Machinists, toolmakers, and inspection technicians typically install this holder as part of a gauge stand or magnetic base assembly to enable accurate surface, bore, and runout measurements.

This holder is suited for use in both shop-floor and inspection room settings where dial test indicators must be held in a fixed position for repeatable readings. It is commonly found in manufacturing, fabrication, and maintenance environments where surface plates, lathe setups, and milling machine work require a dependable indicator mounting solution. The 901997 is intended for use with standard dial test indicators and integrates into typical gauge holding systems without modification.
