Value Collection SET Indicator Base Kit Magnetic Base

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SET is a complete indicator base kit designed for dimensional measurement and inspection work. The kit includes a dial indicator with a 0.001 inch graduation, a magnetic base, and a point set, giving technicians everything needed to set up and take precise measurements in a single package. The dial indicator provides a 1.0 inch measuring range, making it suitable for checking runout, flatness, alignment, and surface variation on machined parts and assemblies. This kit is commonly used by machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance professionals who need a ready-to-use measurement setup without sourcing components individually.

This indicator base kit is appropriate for use in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance environments where surface plates, milling machines, lathes, or similar equipment require regular alignment and inspection checks. The magnetic base mounts securely to ferrous surfaces, allowing the indicator to be positioned and repositioned quickly across a variety of workholding and fixturing scenarios. The included point set extends the kit's versatility for probing different geometries and contact surfaces.

Key Features

• Complete kit includes dial indicator, magnetic base, and point set
• 0.001 inch dial graduation for precise dimensional readings
• 1.0 inch indicator measuring range accommodates a wide variety of inspection tasks
• Magnetic base mounts to ferrous surfaces for stable, adjustable positioning
• Single-package solution reduces sourcing time for measurement setups

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose indicator base kit suitable for standard dial indicator measurement applications on ferrous surfaces in machine shop and industrial maintenance settings.

Installation Notes

Setup and use of this kit does not require specialized trade licensing, but proper measurement technique is essential for accurate results. Ensure the magnetic base is mounted to a clean, flat ferrous surface free of chips, oil, or debris before engaging the magnet. Position the indicator so the measuring point contacts the workpiece perpendicular to the surface being measured to avoid cosine error. When switching contact points, verify the replacement point is fully seated and secure before taking readings.
