Clamping shank Ø 8 mm h6 — Käfer mounting shank for dial gauges

Clamping shank Ø 8 mm h6 for secure mounting of dial and feeler measuring instruments, designed for precise positioning in measurement fixtures and test stands

• Precise Ø 8 mm h6 shank
• Engineered for dial gauge mounting
• Single-piece supply, pack of 1
• Tight tolerance for reproducible fit

Stable, precision mounting for reliable measurements

The clamping shank provides a consistently accurate interface thanks to the Ø 8 mm h6 specification, which denotes a tight tolerance class commonly used where positioning repeatability is essential. This level of dimensional control reduces play between holder and instrument, improving repeatability of readings and lowering the need for frequent re-calibration. For metrology applications and routine workshop checks, the shank’s fit supports stable contact between the instrument and its support, leading to fewer measurement deviations and a more efficient inspection process.

Designed for measuring instruments and workshop fixtures

Compatibility with dial and feeler measuring instruments is the main functional advantage of this component. The geometry and tolerance class are optimised for dial gauge spindles and similar stems, enabling straightforward integration into stands, clamps and fixtures. The compact form factor supports flexible fixture design without adding bulk, while the tight tolerance reduces wobble and angular misalignment. Where consistent contact and alignment matter, this mounting shank contributes directly to lower measurement uncertainty and improved workflow in quality control routines.

Practical benefits for procurement and maintenance

Supplied as a single unit (pack quantity 1), the component is suited for targeted replacements or small-batch equipment builds. The straightforward specification—Ø 8 mm h6—simplifies procurement and inventory management, as the shank can be specified unambiguously on parts lists and maintenance documentation. For maintenance teams and workshop managers, the clear dimensional designation supports rapid verification and ensures compatibility with existing holders and measuring heads from Käfer and similar manufacturers.
