Insize Styli For Dail Test Indicator (6284 Series)

Insize Styli For Dail Test Indicator (6284 Series) Dial test indicators are precision measurement tools used in mechanical engineering and metrology to measure small distances and deviations with high accuracy. They consist of a dial face, a needle that moves in response to very slight changes, and a stylus that makes contact with the object being measured. The stylus is a critical component of the dial test indicator as it directly interacts with the surface of the workpiece, transmitting minute movements to the indicator mechanism.

Styli for dial test indicators come in various shapes, sizes, and materials to suit different measurement needs. Common materials for styli include tungsten carbide for durability and wear resistance, ruby for its hardness and smoothness, and various grades of steel for general-purpose applications. The shape of the stylus can vary from conical to cylindrical, pointed, or flat, depending on the specific requirements of the measurement task, such as the surface finish of the part or the accessibility of the measurement point.
