The stand features a rectangular enameled cast iron base that provides a stable, rigid platform for repeatable surface measurements. At 8 inches of post height, it gives technicians and machinists adequate clearance for a wide range of workpieces. A fine adjustment mechanism is included for precise positioning of the indicator holder, and the holder itself ships with the unit. Accuracy is rated to 0.0006 inches, making it appropriate for close-tolerance inspection work on the bench or surface plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis stand is suited for dimensional inspection in machine shops, tool rooms, quality control labs, and production environments. It is typically used by machinists, metrologists, and quality technicians when setting up dial indicators or comparator gages for repetitive part checking, runout measurement, or surface variation inspection. The rectangular base geometry suits standard surface plate setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction with rugged enameled base for long-term shop durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFine adjustment mechanism allows precise vertical positioning of the indicator holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inch post height provides clearance for a variety of workpiece sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccuracy rated to 0.0006 inches for close-tolerance inspection tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes holder — no additional mounting hardware required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRectangular base geometry for stable placement on surface plates and bench setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard bench stand for comparator gages and dial indicators used in general precision measurement setups.

Place the stand on a clean, level surface plate or granite bench block before mounting any indicator. Ensure the indicator is securely clamped in the holder and fine adjustment is locked before taking readings. Avoid impact or dropping, as cast iron bases can crack and compromise measurement accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.34375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0006 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFine Adjustment\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Holder\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Anvil\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Dial Indicator\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13-696-0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SPIROTHERM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723373838642,"sku":"13-696-0","price":79.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/745be7dd17fd739f666722a6d04e300e.jpg?v=1788604119","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/spi-13-696-0-comparator-gage-stand-cast-iron-rectangular-base","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
