This steel contact point features a 4-48 thread size, a 1\/16 inch diameter tip, and an overall length of 0.25 inches, making it suited for tight-clearance inspection work where a standard point would not reach or seat correctly. Metrology technicians, machinists, and quality control professionals install this type of contact point when setting up indicator rigs on fixtures, surface plates, or machine tool setups requiring precise, repeatable surface contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis contact point is intended for use with AGD (American Gage Design) dial indicators that accept a 4-48 threaded contact point. It is appropriate for both shop-floor and lab environments where fine measurement tolerances are required. The small tip diameter of 1\/16 inch allows contact in grooves, bores, and other confined geometry that a larger ball-end point cannot access reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-48 thread size for direct installation on AGD dial indicator stems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/16 inch tip diameter for access in confined measurement locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.25 inch overall length suitable for close-clearance setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability and consistent contact geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial contact point style for applications where standard points are not appropriate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with AGD dial indicators that accept a 4-48 threaded contact point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eContact point replacement requires no special tooling beyond a small wrench or contact point tool to engage the 4-48 thread without damaging the indicator spindle. Always ensure the indicator is removed from active measurement load before swapping contact points. Thread the contact point in by hand first to avoid cross-threading, then snug with a tool only enough to seat securely. Verify runout and seating after installation before resuming measurement work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch (1.59 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (6.30 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (6.35 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Point Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Special\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 70795\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538828820786,"sku":"70795","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/22df7a3d4630e7d7417717f67116933c.jpg?v=1785827732","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-70795-drop-indicator-special-contact-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
