Magnetic measuring stand "Bosch" – 80 kg magnetic base, 500 mm height

The Magnetic measuring stand "Bosch" is a workshop-grade magnetic base designed to hold dial indicators and small test instruments steadily for inspection and setup work in metalworking and quality control environments.

• 80 kg magnetic pull with on/off switch
• Fine adjustment for precise positioning
• Chrome-plated Ø20 mm column for stiffness
• Cross arm Ø16 x 390 mm for extended reach

A secure foundation for repeatable measurements

The combination of a magnetic base with a prismatic sole and an integrated on/off switch provides a reliable anchoring system on ferrous surfaces that reduces slippage during probing and gauging. The high 80 kg holding force is specifically beneficial when working on vertical or irregular surfaces, ensuring stable contact so that readings can be taken without re‑clamping. The practical result is fewer measurement errors and less time spent re‑aligning test equipment, which directly increases throughput in routine inspection tasks.

Micro‑adjustment and reach for accurate alignment

A mechanical fine adjustment mechanism permits controlled, sub‑millimetre movements of the probe or indicator, enabling precise coaxing into position without disturbing the setup. The chrome‑plated Ø20 x 420 mm column delivers stiffness and resistance to torsion, while the Ø16 x 390 mm cross arm extends reach for awkward or recessed measurement points. Together these features allow accurate orientation of gauges with minimal operator effort, turning a potentially fiddly process into a fast, reproducible step in the measurement workflow.

Built for everyday workshop use and compatibility

With an overall height of 500 mm and a compact base footprint, this magnetic support balances reach and stability for bench and shop‑floor use; the unit weighs 4.2 kg, which aids portability while preserving robustness. The stanchion and arm are chrome‑plated to resist corrosion and to maintain surface finish where clamping parts and accessories interface. The design suits common dial indicators and test probes used in machine shops and inspection departments, offering a practical, long‑lasting accessory that simplifies set‑ups and sustains measurement quality over repeated cycles.

FAQ

How strong is the magnetic holding force and what does it mean in use?
The magnetic base provides an 80 kg holding force; this ensures secure attachment to ferrous surfaces and reduces the risk of movement during indicator readings.

Can the stand be adjusted finely for delicate alignment?
Yes, the stand includes a mechanical fine adjustment that allows controlled positional changes for exact indicator alignment.

What are the main dimensions to consider when planning a setup?
Key dimensions are overall height 500 mm, column Ø20 x 420 mm, and cross arm Ø16 x 390 mm, which determine reach and clearance for most bench and shop applications.

Is the unit suitable for portable use between workstations?
Weighing 4.2 kg and featuring a compact base, the stand is portable enough for routine repositioning while remaining stable during measurements.

Which measurement instruments are compatible with this magnetic stand?
The stand is compatible with standard dial indicators and small test probes commonly used in inspection and setup work; the M12 thread and cross arm permit straightforward mounting of typical holders.
