Starrett 81-141J dial indicator is ideal for precise measurements of dimensions and alignments. This dial indicator is used in manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, precision engineering and construction applications.
Working Mechanism:
- Place the dial indicator on a stable surface near the component to be measured.
- Position the contact point of the indicator's stem against the surface of the component you want to measure.
- Press the contact point against the surface and rotate the bezel until the indicator's needle aligns with the '0' on the dial.
- As you move or adjust the component, the indicator's needle will move accordingly, showing the deviation from the reference point. Read the measurement value on the dial.
- The scale on the dial indicates the incremental measurements. Each full revolution of the needle around the dial corresponds to a certain unit of measurement.
- Rotate the bezel's serrated edge to fine-tune the position of the contact point for precise adjustments.
- Record the measured value for reference.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How can I ensure the longevity of this dial indicator?
A. Regular cleaning, proper storage and avoiding excessive force during adjustments will contribute to the long-term durability and accuracy of the dial indicator.
Q. What does the indicator's dial scale represent?
A. The dial scale indicates incremental measurements. Each full revolution of the needle corresponds to a specific unit of measurement with smaller divisions representing fractions or decimals of that unit.
Q. How is the indicator's zeroing process carried out?
A. To zero the indicator, press the contact point against the surface, then rotate the bezel until the needle aligns with the '0' on the dial.
