iGaging Snap-Check Pro Dial Indicator
Precision Setup and Measurement for Your Workshop
When accuracy matters, the iGaging Snap-Check Pro Dial Indicator makes it easy to measure, adjust, and fine-tune your woodworking machinery. Whether you're setting the height of a table saw blade, adjusting a router bit, checking a planer, or measuring the depth of a cut, this versatile tool helps take the guesswork out of precision setups.
Unlike digital measuring tools, a traditional dial indicator never needs batteries and is always ready to work. The easy-to-read analog dial also offers a distinct advantage when checking surfaces for flatness, machinery for alignment, or rotating parts for runout. Rather than watching numbers constantly change on a digital display, you can simply follow the needle as it moves back and forth, making even small variations easy to spot.
One particularly useful feature is the dial's ability to display measurements in sixty-fourths of an inch (1/64"), something not commonly found on dial indicators. Along with its precision 0.001" scale, this fractional scale makes the Snap-Check Pro especially convenient for woodworkers and boatbuilders who routinely work with fractional-inch measurements. You get the accuracy of a precision instrument without having to convert every reading into decimals.
With a measuring range of 0–2", the Snap-Check Pro features a solid aluminum body, strong magnetic base, 360° rotating dial, and fine-adjustment knob for accurate positioning. Interchangeable ball, flat, and extended-tip anvils add versatility for different measuring tasks.
And its usefulness extends well beyond machine setup. Keep it handy for checking the flatness of a work surface, fine-tuning jigs and fixtures, measuring small differences in height or depth, or checking the trueness of rotating components. It's the kind of dependable measuring instrument that finds new uses throughout the shop.
