Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Timothy ★★★★★

The 5/32" steel contact point gives me just the reach I needed for those deep-set dovetail measurements. The ball tip glides smoothly without catching on edges, making setup much quicker.

Julian G. ★★★★★

The 0.120" ball tip reaches into tight spots where my other indicators can't even get close, and the 4mm contact point length gives just enough reach without feeling flimsy. Even after a full day of checking runout on the mill, the needle stays smooth and responsive, no sticking or hesitation.

Christopher ★★★★★

Set it up on a magnetic base and it tracked true right out of the box, the 0.120" ball tip grabbing the surface cleanly without any slip. The 5/32" contact point is short enough to get into tight spots where my other indicator won't fit, and the needle response feels instant.
