Spi 30-205-9 Comparator Gage Stand Rectangular Base

Product Description

The SPI 30-205-9 is a rectangular-base comparator gage stand designed for precision measurement setups in machine shops, quality control labs, and toolroom environments. Standing 8.5 inches overall with a sturdy base measuring 5.75 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 1.5 inches high, this stand provides a stable, low-profile foundation for mounting a comparator gage. A fine adjustment mechanism allows controlled, incremental positioning of the gage holder, improving measurement repeatability. The unit ships with a holder included. At 7.51 pounds, the cast construction resists tipping during use. Machinists, QC inspectors, and toolroom technicians are the primary installers and users of this type of stand.

This stand suits bench-top comparator gage applications in both production and inspection environments. It is appropriate for residential shops, light industrial facilities, and professional metrology setups where a compact, rigid stand is needed to hold a comparator gage at a consistent reference height. The rectangular base provides a defined footprint that fits standard surface plates and bench-top workstations. Because this stand does not include a dial indicator or anvil, it is typically paired with a separately sourced comparator gage and contact point assembly.

Key Features

• Fine adjustment mechanism enables precise vertical positioning of the gage holder
• Rectangular base geometry offers a stable, defined footprint on surface plates and benches
• Overall height of 8.5 inches accommodates standard comparator gage reach requirements
• Holder included — no additional mounting hardware required for basic setup
• Compact and sturdy design minimizes deflection during measurement
• Weighs 7.51 pounds for bench stability without being difficult to reposition

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use comparator gage stand for bench-top precision measurement applications requiring a rectangular-base stand with fine adjustment and a standard holder mount.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or metrology technicians in a controlled bench environment. No power source is required. Ensure the mounting surface, such as a surface plate or workbench, is clean and level before placing the stand. Do not overtighten the holder clamp, as this can introduce distortion into the gage reading. Verify the gage is zeroed and the fine adjustment is locked before taking measurements.
