These lever-type dial test indicators are especially intended for use on the shop floor or in the inspection room - Ideally suited for comparative measurements on a surface plate, for instance - Determine form, shape and position deviations as well as axial and runout errors.
Lateral Models - Dial test indicators with dial face mounted parallel to insert's axis, but on the flat side of the dial housing.
Note on the use of TESATEST dial test indicators. With the measuring insert lying parallel to the workpiece surface (figA), these indicators give true reading due to the amplification factor to 1:1. In another measuring position (angle α in fig B), the effective lever length changes so that the read value needs to be corrected. With respect to this, also refer to the instruction manual.
