About Fowler - 52-562-002-0 52-562-002 Horizontal White

The Fowler 52-562-002-0 Horizontal White Dial X-Test Indicator features jeweled movement, revolution counter, automatic reversal and 1" diameter. It has 0.060" measuring range, twice the range of most indicators. 2 dovetail mounting locations, easy-to-read tilted dial, revolution counter, automatic reversal, adjustable bezel for easy zeroing. 0.080" and 0.120" carbide points, 0.040" steel points. This dial X-Test indicator comes with 5/32" and 3/8" dovetail clamps. Dial readings with three digits, 0-15-0 for example, signify that the indicator has a balanced dial. Dial readings with two digits, 0-100 for example, indicate the dial has a continuous dial. Balanced dials are used for reading the difference from a specific surface reference point. Continuous dials are used for direct readings and usually have a larger measurement range than balanced dials. Dial indicators are also called dial gauges, probe, and electronic indicators. These precision instruments measure small linear distances and object sizes. The dial magnifies the measurement so that it can be easily read by the human eye. Frequently used in manufacturing, laboratories, and other industrial or mechanical fields, dial indicators are used anywhere a small measurement must be found and recorded or transferred, such as checking the variation in tolerance of a workpiece. Standard dial indicators measure the displacement along the axis of the indicator. Dial test indicators are very similar to dial indicators, except that the axis of measurement is perpendicular to the axis of the indicator. Dial and dial test indicators can be analog, with a mechanical dial, or electronic, with a digital display. Some electronic models transfer the data electronically to a computer for recording and potential manipulation.
