Starrett 81-241J dial indicator is a precision measurement tool used to gauge small variations in dimensions and positions of mechanical components with accuracy. This dial indicator is ideal for applications that include machine setup, alignment and quality control in the automotive, aerospace and machining industries. The indicator's precision dial provides real-time readings, aiding in detecting minute deviations and ensuring parts adhere to specifications.
Working Mechanism:
- Starrett 81-241J dial indicator operates through a plunger mechanism with a jewelled bearing for smooth movement. Its continuous dial, with markings indicating 0.001-inch graduations, rotates as the plunger detects deviations in an object's dimensions. The bezel and bezel lock allow zeroing and securing the indicator. The contact point's shape suits the measurement type. This lug-back indicator's readings reflect the plunger's position, aiding in precise measurements.
Features:
- Starrett 81-241J dial indicator has a jewelled bearing, enhancing smooth movement and accuracy.
- It has a bezel lock that secures the bezel in place after setting the reference point, preventing unintended adjustments during measurements.
- This dial indicator has a plunger mechanism for controlled measurements.
- It has a radius-shaped contact point for precise positioning and has a lug for facilitating easy mounting.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How do I read measurements on the continuous dial of the indicator?
A. The continuous dial's markings correspond to 0.001-inch graduations. As the plunger moves, the dial rotates and the pointer indicates the measurement.
Q. How do I properly maintain and clean the jewelled bearing in the indicator?
A. Regularly cleaning the jewelled bearing with a gentle solvent and keeping it free from debris helps maintain its smooth movement.
