It covers a measurement range of 0 to 0.025 inches with a graduation of 0.0001 inches per division, providing resolution suitable for close-tolerance work. The 0-5-0 balanced dial reading allows technicians to detect deviation in both directions from zero without repositioning the indicator. The indicator features a jeweled bearing for smooth, repeatable stylus travel and a stainless steel stem measuring 0.375 inches in diameter. A no-glare satin finish on the white dial face reduces eye strain during extended use. Installed by machinists, toolmakers, and quality control technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis indicator is suited for use in machine shops, tool rooms, and quality inspection stations where fine surface variation, runout, or part alignment must be verified. Its lug back mounting style is compatible with standard indicator holders and magnetic base arms. A flat back is included, expanding mounting options on flat surfaces and surface plates. The 0.010 inches per revolution travel rate suits applications requiring fine measurement over a short total range, such as checking spindle runout, flatness, or part concentricity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasurement range of 0 to 0.025 inches with 0.0001 inches graduation for high-resolution readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeweled bearing construction for smooth stylus movement and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0-5-0 balanced dial reading for bidirectional deviation measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-glare satin finish on white dial face for clear reading under shop lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel stem at 0.375 inches diameter resists corrosion in coolant environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes both lug back and flat back for flexible mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnbreakable crystal protects the dial face from impact damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style dial drop indicator compatible with standard lug back and flat back indicator holders, magnetic bases, and surface plate stands used in general machining and inspection setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or metrology technicians using a compatible indicator holder or magnetic base arm. Ensure the holder clamps securely on the lug or flat back before taking measurements. The workpiece and machine spindle should be stationary and free of vibration before zeroing the dial. Avoid side-loading the stem beyond its designed contact range to prevent damage to the jeweled bearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 to 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Graduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Reading\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0-5-0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRange Per Revolution\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/16 inches (42.86 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Jeweled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lug Back (Flat Back included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAGD Group\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 53378\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540362920242,"sku":"53378","price":409.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/192ba8f938a5e6eb54bc516af5d76f17.jpg?v=1785853381","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-53378-dial-drop-indicator-0-025-in-range-lug-back","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
