Feintaster M208.004.5 — Horizontal fine test indicator (0–1 mm, 0.01 mm, Metav IndustryLine)

The Feintaster M208.004.5 is a horizontal fine test indicator intended for very small, high-precision lateral measurements in fine mechanical assemblies and fixture checks.

• Horizontal measuring stylus for side probing
• 0–1 mm measuring range with 0.01 mm resolution
• 40 mm dial for clear analogue reading
• Shock-protected design for workshop use

Precision in confined spaces with micro-range capability

This instrument belongs to the micro-range of measuring tools, combining a very short travel with high repeatability for tasks where space is limited. The 0–1 mm measuring range, paired with a 0.01 mm dial graduation, makes it suitable for delicate alignment, small-part inspection and fine adjustment work in jigs and fixtures. The 40 mm dial provides immediate visual feedback on deviations, while the compact construction and 0.125 kg weight keep the indicator unobtrusive when mounted on small fixtures.

Reliable mechanical behaviour and repeatable results

Designed with workshop realities in mind, the indicator features a shock-protected mechanism and an automatic reversal of measuring direction, reducing the need for frequent manual resets and lowering the risk of damage during handling. The analogue movement and clear 0–50–0 bezel marking give a straightforward, maintenance-friendly display that remains dependable under routine use. These mechanical choices lead to fewer process interruptions and more predictable inspection cycles.

Practical mounting and included accessories for fast integration

The instrument is supplied with dovetail guides for clamping shanks of Ø6 mm and Ø8 mm, enabling direct integration into common holders and stands without additional adapters. An 18 mm stylus and a measuring stroke of 0–0.8 mm are specified for fine contact tasks, allowing sensitive probing on small features. The combination of horizontal stylus geometry and included mounting options supports quick setup on test rigs and reduces fixture engineering time.
