Starrett 64218 Dial Test Indicator Kit 7 Pc 0.02 in

Product Description

The STARRETT 64218 is a 7-piece dial test indicator kit built for precision measurement in machining, toolroom, and quality-control applications. The indicator features a 0.02 inch measuring range with a dial graduation of 0.0001 inches, delivering the resolution required for tight-tolerance work. The 1-3/8 inch (1.375 inch) white dial reads 0-5-0 with a revolution count hand for clear bidirectional measurement. A jeweled movement and precision gear-driven design maintain accuracy through repeated use. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die makers, and metrology technicians are the primary users of this kit.

This kit is suited for horizontal and vertical surface inspection, machine tool setup, runout checks, and fixture alignment in both shop and lab environments. The dovetail mount and narrow body allow the indicator to reach into confined areas. The included accessories cover a range of common mounting and positioning scenarios, making the kit ready for use without sourcing additional components separately.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this indicator kit is typically performed by machinists or metrology technicians familiar with dial test indicator mounting and surface inspection procedures. Secure the dovetail clamp firmly before taking measurements to prevent indicator movement and false readings. Do not overtighten the dovetail clamp on the indicator body, as excessive clamping force can affect measurement accuracy. Always zero the indicator against a known reference surface before beginning a measurement sequence.
