K 30 lever-type dial indicator — 0.8 mm range, 0.01 mm resolution (Käfer)

K 30 is a compact lever-type dial indicator designed for fine inspection and small-displacement measurement in workshop and inspection settings.

• Compact 0.8 mm measuring range
• High resolution 0.01 mm graduation
• 32 mm dial diameter for tight spaces

Precise readings for delicate inspection tasks

The instrument offers a 0.8 mm measuring range combined with a fine 0.01 mm graduation, enabling confident detection of minimal deviations during component inspection. The marked 0-40-0 scale provides a mirrored numeric reference that suits quick visual checks while the underlying graduation ensures precision in repeat measurements. A nominally short probe reduces lever deformation and maintains consistent contact force, translating mechanical movement into clear dial deflection for traceable quality checks.

Small footprint that fits tight setups

With a 32 mm outer dial and an effective probe length of 11.8 mm, the gauge is tailored to confined fixture arrangements and close-packed assemblies. The compact dial reduces obstruction on test benches and allows integration into existing clamping setups where larger indicators would collide with neighbouring features. This compactness not only saves bench space but also minimises probe overhang, which supports stable readings and reduces the risk of accidental contact during manual handling.

Robust operation for repetitive measurement cycles

The lever-type mechanism is inherently suited for repeated short-travel measurements, offering quick response and clear mechanical feedback. The small measuring span focuses the instrument on fine-tolerance tasks such as run-out checks, small-step gauging and comparative measurement routines. Clear scale marking and the defined graduation help technicians and inspectors derive actionable decisions rapidly while maintaining an objective, measurement-centred workflow aligned with industrial quality processes.

FAQ

What measuring range does this indicator cover?
The K 30 lever-type indicator covers a measuring range of 0.8 mm, suitable for fine, short-travel inspections.

How fine is the graduation on the dial?
The dial features a 0.01 mm graduation, enabling detection of very small deviations during inspection with the Käfer lever-type gauge (SKU 4000851670NW).

What does the 0-40-0 marking mean on the scale?
The 0-40-0 marking denotes the dial’s numeric layout for rapid visual comparison; the instrument’s actual readable increment remains 0.01 mm.

Is this indicator suitable for use in confined spaces?
Yes, the compact 32 mm dial and 11.8 mm probe length make the indicator appropriate for installations with limited clearance.

What is included in the packaging?
The item is supplied as a single unit (packaging unit: 1), ready for integration into inspection setups.
