Digital test indicator 20 mm with 8 mm shank — compact digital probe, 0.01 mm resolution (Metav IndustryLine)

The Digital test indicator 20 mm with 8 mm shank is a compact, digital displacement indicator designed for short-range inspection tasks and fixture checks in workshops and quality departments

• 20 mm measuring range
• 0.01 mm resolution, mm/inch display
• 8 mm shank, spring-loaded probe
• Low measuring force <2.2 N, accuracy ±0.03 mm

Precision where small deflections matter

The instrument offers a 20 mm measuring range with a display resolution of 0.01 mm, giving clear numerical readout for fast pass/fail decisions. The stated ±0.03 mm accuracy indicates the repeatable tolerance that can be expected during routine checks; this makes the device suitable for standard workshop quality control and fine adjustment tasks where sub‑hundredth‑millimetre consistency is required. The numerical values on the display are straightforward to interpret, and the metric/inch toggle simplifies work with mixed drawings or legacy jigs.

Gentle contact and secure mounting for sensitive checks

A spring‑loaded probe mechanism combined with a measuring force below 2.2 N reduces the risk of deforming delicate parts while ensuring the probe returns reliably to its rest position. The 8 mm shank conforms to common holder standards, enabling quick integration into existing stands and fixture systems; this reduces setup time and keeps inspection throughput high. The compact design and balanced mass support steady handling during repeat measurements, and the digital readout includes an on/off switch plus mm/inch selection and a zero function for simple comparative checks.

Compact handling, clear results and workplace benefits

At just 0.23 kg and approximately 108 mm in overall length, the unit is easy to manoeuvre in cramped setups and on measuring fixtures. The bright digital display speeds reading and reduces interpretation errors compared with analogue indicators; this supports faster decision cycles on the shop floor. Supplied in a protective case for transport and safe storage, the device is presented ready for immediate use in inspection routines. The combination of compact size, low contact force and clear digital feedback promotes reliable measurement practice and fewer reworks.

FAQ

What measuring range does the instrument cover?
The device covers a measuring range of 0–20 mm, which is ideal for short‑stroke inspections, fixture checks and precision adjustments.

What resolution and accuracy can be expected?
The display resolution is 0.01 mm and the stated accuracy is ±0.03 mm, providing reliable repeatability for standard workshop control tasks.

How is the probe mounted in fixtures or holders?
Mounting is via an 8 mm shank compatible with common holder systems; this allows secure installation in stands and fixture arms.

Is the probe suitable for delicate components?
Yes. The spring‑loaded probe and a measuring force below 2.2 N minimise contact stress, making the instrument appropriate for fragile or thin-walled parts.

Does the unit include protection for transport and storage?
The instrument is supplied in a protective case suitable for transport and short-term storage, reducing the risk of damage during handling.
