Spi CMS160726100 Dial Test Indicator Kit 8 Piece

Product Description

The SPI CMS160726100 is an 8-piece horizontal-style dial test indicator kit designed for precision measurement in machining, inspection, and metrology applications. The indicator features a 0-100-0 dial reading with a dial graduation of 0.002 mm, providing a measurement range of 0.20 mm per revolution. The fully jeweled movement and satin chrome finish support accurate, repeatable readings in demanding shop environments. A short form certificate of calibration is included, confirming factory-verified accuracy to 0.040 mm. Licensed metrology technicians and precision machinists are the primary installers and users of this kit.

This kit is suited for horizontal indicator applications where a dovetail stem mount is required, including surface plate inspection, height gage setups, and machine tool alignment. The included height gage bar and universal clamp expand the mounting options for fixturing on mills, lathes, and CMM setups. The fitted carrying case keeps all components organized for bench or field use. The 0.080-inch ball diameter contact point is appropriate for fine-surface and contoured workpiece contact.

Key Features

• Horizontal indicator style with dovetail stem for rigid, low-profile mounting
• Fully jeweled movement for consistent accuracy and reduced wear
• 0.002 mm dial graduation supports high-resolution measurement
• Satin chrome finish resists corrosion and glare in shop lighting
• Includes 5/32-inch and 3/8-inch diameter dovetail extensions for reach flexibility
• Short form certificate of calibration included for traceability

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard dovetail stem indicator holders, height gages, and universal clamps common in precision machining and inspection setups.

Installation Notes

Mount the indicator using the dovetail stem into a compatible holder or the included universal clamp, ensuring the stem is fully seated and the clamp fastener is snug before taking measurements. Use the appropriate dovetail extension to position the contact point perpendicular to the workpiece surface for accurate readings. Handle the jeweled movement with care and avoid dropping or impacting the indicator. Calibration should be verified periodically per your shop quality procedures.
