FM1101 Dial Indicator – 1 mm range, 0.001 mm resolution, shock-protected (Käfer)

The FM1101 dial indicator is a compact precision instrument for comparative measurements and runout checks in workshop and inspection environments.

• High precision 0.001 mm resolution
• 1 mm measuring range for fine inspection
• With shock protection for workshop robustness
• 58 mm bezel; 0.1 mm per dial revolution

Accurate, repeatable readings for component inspection

The compact dial gauge provides 0.001 mm resolution across a 1 mm measuring range, making it suitable for tasks where fine tolerances matter. The finely graduated scale reduces interpretation error and supports consistent pass/fail decisions during incoming inspection and final checks. Because the instrument records small deviations reliably, it enables tighter process control and fewer reworks, which contributes directly to production efficiency and reduced scrap rates.

Designed for workshop conditions and longevity

Built with integrated shock protection, the indicator resists accidental impact that would otherwise disturb the measuring mechanism. This protective feature maintains calibration longer and minimises downtime caused by damage. The durable construction supports routine handling at the workbench and in production environments, so quality checks remain reliable even under frequent use. Confidence in the measurement tool reduces inspection-related delays and supports a smoother workflow.

Easy-to-read scale and practical dial characteristics

The instrument features a 58 mm bezel, offering a clear, legible dial that speeds up visual readings on the shop floor. One full dial revolution corresponds to 0.1 mm, which simplifies interpretation when tracking cumulative displacement. The clear marking and responsive pointer make it practical for fast comparative measurement and runout testing; operators familiar with analogue indicators will appreciate the straightforward scale division and immediate visual feedback.

Integrates into inspection routines and technical support

As a compact comparative gauge, this indicator fits common stands and holders used in bench inspection setups, helping to streamline measurement procedures.
