Spi CMS160726141 Dial Test Indicator Kit 8 Pc

Product Description

The SPI CMS160726141 is an 8-piece dial test indicator kit designed for precision measurement in machining, inspection, and metrology applications. The horizontal-style indicator delivers a measuring range of plus or minus 0.03 inches with a dial graduation of 0.0005 inches and an accuracy of 0.0005 inches, making it suitable for surface runout checks, alignment work, and part inspection. The 1.25-inch white dial face uses a 0-15-0 reading format for easy bidirectional measurement. The kit includes a fitted case and all major accessories needed for immediate deployment on the shop floor or inspection bench. Machinists, toolmakers, and quality technicians are the primary users of this type of instrument.

This kit is well suited for use in machine shops, tool rooms, quality control departments, and precision manufacturing environments. The dovetail stem mounting and included universal clamp allow the indicator to be positioned on magnetic bases, surface plates, height gages, and similar fixtures. The included height gage bar extends the mounting options for vertical and horizontal setups. The satin chrome finish resists corrosion in typical shop environments. The fully jeweled movement supports consistent, repeatable readings over extended service life.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use dial test indicator kit compatible with standard dovetail stem mounting systems. The included 5/32 inch and 3/8 inch diameter dovetail extensions provide compatibility with a wide range of indicator holders, magnetic bases, and height gage setups commonly used in precision inspection work.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by machinists, toolmakers, or metrology technicians familiar with dial indicator mounting procedures. Before mounting, ensure the fixture or base is clean and free of burrs that could affect indicator seating. Do not overtighten the universal clamp, as excessive clamping force can distort the dovetail stem and affect readings. Verify calibration using the included certificate before first use in a critical inspection application.
