Centesimal dial gauges

Centesimal dial gauges are measuring instruments used to detect small linear movements and dimensional variations with high accuracy. Widely used in quality control, industrial metrology, and precision machining, they allow checks on flatness, parallelism, concentricity, runout, and dimensional differences between machined parts.

A centesimal dial gauge converts the linear movement of the contact spindle into the movement of the pointer on the graduated dial. The 0.01 mm resolution allows very small variations to be checked quickly, making these instruments essential for dimensional inspections in workshops and metrology laboratories.

Centesimal dial gauges are commonly used together with magnetic stands, support bases, height gauges, dial bore gauges, and comparative measuring systems. They are particularly suitable for checking ovality, radial runout, straightness, parallelism, and dimensional deviations during production and testing operations.

The range includes analogue centesimal dial gauges, shockproof models, waterproof dial gauges, top-reading versions, and long-travel models for specific applications. These analogue instruments are especially appreciated for fast inspections in traditional mechanical machining thanks to their immediate reading and practical use.

Thanks to their high sensitivity, centesimal dial gauges are widely used for checking shafts, flanges, turned components, ground surfaces, and mechanical parts with tight tolerances. They are essential instruments in dimensional inspection processes where repeatability and measurement reliability are required.

To achieve accurate results, it is important to use the centesimal dial gauge with stable support systems. The use of rigid stands helps improve inspection quality and reduce measurement errors during dimensional checks.
