This is a vintage collection of three Federal Products dial indicators in three different dial sizes and measurement ranges. These dial indicators are precision tools used to measure small variations in surfaces, alignment, and dimensional tolerances in machining, manufacturing, and mechanical applications. They can be fixtured for reading tolerance repeatability, runouts, or machine movements for example. These are high precision measuring gages featuring a full jeweled movement for smooth dial movement and extreme accuracy, and have features such as a green tinted dial for easier reading.
These indicators of 1980\'s vintage and of the highest quality. They are handy to have and will complement any tool collection for everyday machinist/toolmaking use, or the hobby machinist, or the collector. Also included are spare indicator tips and a special purpose Federal Products factory tap. These items have been in storage for over 25 years and except where noted below, are sold ready to use.
