Triton 1″ Dial Indicator 0.001″ Graduation Travel Lug Back White Face

Description

Product Overview

The Triton 1″ dial indicator is engineered to deliver exceptional accuracy for a wide range of dimensional measurement tasks. Featuring a 0.001″ graduation, the instrument allows users to read minute variations with confidence. The travel lug back design enables the indicator to be mounted on a workpiece or fixture, providing hands‑free operation and stable positioning during inspection. Constructed from hardened stainless‑steel, the rack and contact point are resistant to wear, while the jeweled movement ensures smooth, repeatable operation over the life of the product. The white face dial offers high contrast for easy reading in bright workshop lighting or dim environments. All components meet ASME/ANSI standards, guaranteeing that the indicator conforms to industry‑accepted tolerances and performance criteria.

Usage

This dial indicator excels in a variety of industrial and scientific applications. It is ideal for machinists who need to verify spindle runout, check tool wear, or set up precision equipment. Quality‑control inspectors rely on its fine graduation to assess product conformity to tight tolerances. The travel lug back makes it simple to attach the indicator to a rotating shaft, a stationary surface, or a custom jig, allowing for both static and dynamic measurements. Its compact size—just over one inch in diameter—fits comfortably into tight spaces, making it suitable for automotive repair shops, aerospace component testing, and laboratory research where space is at a premium. The indicator does not require batteries, eliminating the need for maintenance and ensuring uninterrupted operation during critical measurement sessions.
