The base uses a strong 60 kg magnetic pull to anchor securely to ferrous surfaces such as machine tables, surface plates, and lathe beds. An articulated arm provides flexible positioning across multiple axes so the indicator can be placed at the exact angle and height needed. A built-in on\/off switch lets the technician engage or release the magnetic hold without moving the workpiece or the instrument setup. Machinists, quality control technicians, and toolroom personnel are the primary users of this type of base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis indicator base suits production and toolroom environments where repeatable, stable indicator positioning is required. Typical applications include runout checks on lathes and mills, surface flatness verification on inspection plates, and fixture alignment during setup. The base footprint of 2-1\/2 x 2-1\/8 inches and a height of 2 inches keeps the unit compact enough for use in tight setups. The articulated arm extends to a post height of 9-1\/2 inches, providing reach for most standard indicator mounting scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60 kg magnetic pull for firm, stable attachment to ferrous surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOn\/off switch allows quick engagement and release without disturbing the setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eArticulated arm design enables multi-axis positioning adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePost height of 9-1\/2 inches accommodates a wide range of indicator placements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact base footprint of 2-1\/2 x 2-1\/8 x 2 inches suits confined machine setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose magnetic indicator base compatible with standard dial indicators and test indicators that use conventional dovetail or lug-style mounting stems common in machining and inspection applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnsure the mounting surface is clean, flat, and free of chips or oil before engaging the magnetic base, as contamination reduces effective holding force. Set the on\/off switch to the off position before positioning the base on the surface to avoid abrupt attachment that could disturb nearby setups. Tighten all articulated arm joints to a firm, hand-snug level before taking measurements to eliminate indicator drift. This type of equipment does not require licensed trade installation but should be used in accordance with applicable shop safety procedures and metrology best practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnetic Pull\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (63 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/8 inches (55 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches (50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArm Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Articulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: On\/Off magnetic engagement switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 625-1360\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51708580593970,"sku":"625-1360","price":194.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bbead86063a7c6923cb0ce210db6a372.jpg?v=1788447179","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-625-1360-magnetic-indicator-base","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
