Designed for a wide range of applications – from manufacturing and quality control to automotive repair and DIY projects – these indicators deliver accuracy, durability, and user-friendly operation. Anchor Star LLC, based in Vancouver, Washington (1308 NE 134TH ST, 98685-2722, United States, reachable at 601-355-7480), has built a reputation for providing reliable tools that meet the demanding needs of professionals and enthusiasts alike. We’re a company focused on giving folks the tools they need to get the job done right, and these dial indicators are no exception. “We listened to what our customers were saying – they wanted something that was accurate, tough, and easy to read. That’s exactly what we delivered,” says a company spokesperson. What is a Dial Indicator, and Why Do You Need One? Okay, let’s get down to basics. A dial indicator is a precision instrument used to measure small distances or variations in dimensions. Think of it as a super-accurate way to see if something is perfectly aligned, flat, or round. It’s a little device with a needle that moves across a dial, showing you just how much something deviates from a reference point. You see these things everywhere in industry. Machinists use them to check the accuracy of their work. Quality control folks use them to make sure parts are made to spec. Auto mechanics use them to check runout on brake rotors. Even hobbyists and DIYers use them for things like aligning engines, checking bearing play, and making sure everything is square. Anchor Star's New Dial Indicators: What Sets Them Apart? Anchor Star’s new line of dial indicators isn't just another set of measuring tools. We’ve taken a long, hard look at what users really need and built in features that make a difference. Here’s a breakdown of what you get: Accuracy You Can Trust: These indicators are built to meet or exceed industry standards for accuracy. We're talking seriously precise measurements, down to 0.001 inch (or 0.02mm). That means you can rely on the readings you get, every single time. Rugged Construction: Let's face it, tools get knocked around. That’s why we built these indicators with a hardened steel case and a durable, shock-resistant movement. They’re designed to withstand the rigors of daily use in even the toughest environments. These aren't going to fall apart after a few uses. Easy-to-Read Dial: Forget squinting and struggling to read tiny numbers. Our indicators feature a large, clear dial with bold markings and a high-contrast face. You can get accurate readings quickly and easily, even in low-light conditions. We’ve made the numbers big and clear – no more guesswork. Versatile Mounting: These indicators come with a standard 8mm shank, making them compatible with a wide range of magnetic bases, test indicators, and other accessories. You can easily adapt them to fit your specific application. We’ve made sure it works with pretty much anything you already have. Zero Setting at Any Position: Need to set a reference point? No problem. Our indicators allow you to set zero at any position on the dial, making it easy to measure relative changes. Super convenient for comparing measurements. Multiple Ranges Available: We offer dial indicators in a variety of measurement ranges (e.g., 0-0.5”, 0-1”, 0-2”) to meet the needs of different applications. Choose the range that’s right for your job. Available with Different Point Contacts: Depending on the task, you might need a different type of contact point. We offer indicators with various point shapes (e.g., carbide ball, pointed) to ensure accurate measurements on a variety of surfaces. Who Benefits from These New Indicators? Seriously, a lot of people. Here’s a quick rundown: Machinists & Toolmakers: Essential for precise alignment, setup, and inspection of machine tools and parts. Quality Control Inspectors: Used to verify the dimensions and tolerances of manufactured parts. Auto Mechanics: Checking runout on brake rotors, measuring bearing play, and aligning engines. HVAC Technicians: Ensuring proper alignment of ductwork and equipment. Woodworkers & Hobbyists: Achieving precise measurements for woodworking projects, model making, and other DIY tasks. Maintenance and Repair Professionals: Quickly and accurately assessing wear and tear on machinery.
