KÄFER K 32 Lever-type test indicator — 0.8 mm range, 0.01 mm graduation

A KÄFER K 32 lever-type test indicator engineered for fine comparative measurement in metalworking and inspection tasks, offering compact dimensions and clear dial reading for routine quality control

• 0.01 mm graduation
• 0.8 mm measuring range
• 32 mm outer ring diameter
• 11.8 mm probe length

Precise comparative measurement in a compact format

The lever-type indicator delivers a measuring range of 0.8 mm with a fine graduation of 0.01 mm, making it suitable for comparative checks, runout inspection and alignment tasks. The instrument’s compact dial and short probe enable measurements in confined spaces where a larger dial gauge would be impractical. By converting small deflections into clear dial movements, this design reduces interpretation errors and supports consistent quality control in production and maintenance settings.

Reliable reading and repeatable results for everyday use

The dial is configured with the numbering scheme 0-40-0, which simplifies quick interpretation during batch inspections and setup procedures. The fine graduation supports repeatability in serial checking; the short, rigid measuring tip transmits contact reliably to the dial mechanism so that minute deviations are visible at a glance. Where precise comparative data is required rather than absolute positional measurement, the lever-type mechanism offers a direct and efficient solution without complex setup.

Robust construction and ergonomic handling for workshop workflows

With an outer ring diameter of 32 mm and a probe length of 11.8 mm, the indicator balances visibility and accessibility. The small footprint reduces interference in crowded fixtures, while the construction is designed for regular workshop handling. The lever action provides tactile feedback and controlled contact force, which helps to protect delicate contacts and maintain measurement consistency. This combination of form and function supports faster inspection cycles and reduces the likelihood of measurement-related rework.

Applications, care and Metav support

The instrument is well suited for comparative checks on machined parts, fixture alignment, or quick go/no-go assessments during setup. Routine care—keeping the contact area clean and protecting the dial from impacts—prolongs service life and preserves accuracy. For additional technical data, application guidance or queries about calibration options, Metav provides experienced support and access to a broad range of metrology accessories to complete the inspection workflow. Metav’s role as a precision partner ensures reliable supply and advice for workshop needs.
