Economy Rigid-Arm Weighted-Base Indicator Holders
Commonly used on workbenches, these stands have a heavy granite base for stability. They hold indicators in place for taking accurate readings.
Holders with a fine-adjustment arm have a knob you can use to precisely position the arm and your indicator. They give you more control over your work setup than holders with a standard arm.

Precision Weighted-Base Indicator Holders with Calibration Certificate
These holders come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST states that the granite base has passed a test for surface accuracy. The extremely tight flatness tolerances of the granite allow for nearly frictionless workpiece movement and provide an accurate reference plane for inspection work.
Holders with jointed arm have a fine-adjustment knob for precise positioning.

Dial Plunger-Style Variance Indicators with Precision Weighted-Base Holder
Mount
Side View
A granite base stabilizes these indicators. The extremely tight flatness tolerances of the granite allow for nearly frictionless workpiece movement and provide an accurate reference plane for inspection work.
Indicators have a continuous dial numbered clockwise around the face for taking direct measurements. Rotate the dial face for viewing at multiple angles. All come with calibration certificates traceable to NIST that state the indicator and the granite base have passed a test for accuracy. They have jeweled bearings that are highly sensitive and wear resistant for a long service life.
Holders with jointed arm have a fine-adjustment knob for precise positioning of the indicator.
