## Description

1PC Universal Magnetic Dial Indicator 360 80 KGN -This product comes with a fully adjustable arm, adjustable by one button. -For use with dial page tests, etc. - Magnetic base With on/off switch. > - Surface ground ground. Please check photos for details

Review: Exceptional value for money vs. the competition. - I’m a firm believer in “buy cheap, pay twice” however, there are exceptions and this product is one of them. For £15 I thought is was worth a punt and at the very worse I can just send it back. There was no need. This is basically a NOGA clone and looks to be every bit as good but £100 cheaper. The magnet is super strong and the arm locks into place and is extremely secure. The only negative is the plastic knobs (and I’m not keen on the red colour) but I’ll machine some new ones as a project. An absolute bargain for £15, I’d happily pay £75 for this.
Review: A well made and finished instrument - This is a great and versatile Magnetic base for Holding both Standard form Dial gauges and the smaller lever arm finger indicator in a range of applications including, Lathework set ups, Miller set up work and a wide range of inspection table uses. Strong Magnet and nicely moving adjustable arms which can be clamped in a single operation. A quality tool for a great price, I have several of these and leave them set up for regular operations around the toolroom / factory floor.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How are the ball joints secured?**
A: Rod inside the arm has tapered ends. As the knob is tightened wedges against the taper forcing the rods out to clamp on the ball.See HTTPS://journeymans-workshop/news  for a review

**Q: Whats the thread size on the base?**
A: Not 100% sure as I don't have the item here to check , but I think its M12 course

**Q: Can the fine adjust be unscrewed from the final ball, or is it machined as one piece, please?**
A: Hi
Have just examined mine more closely and it looks like the unit is machined as ONE piece.   Part of the final clamp body is a blacked aluminium block which can hold 2 types of DTI gauge.  
I have a few of these stands and they are well made the magnetic base is strong.      They are really good value for the money.     If you want to modify the end clamp to hold something else.there is some scope
to make a custom adaptor that will fit on the clamp module.    There is a fine spring adjuster on this final clamp assy also,
Hope this helps,   regards. Tony

**Q: what is the hole size for a guage?**
A: Hi   This is a universal dual use indicator clamp.     The dovetail on the end is for attaching the finger type clock which has
dovetail portions on its external  case.      The incorporated round hole is 8mm dia (or 5/16th) to take the main plunger portion
of a standard dial indicator, which on modern clocks is metric (8mm)            Older type (mercer) clocks, the plunger body is 5/16"
You can always fit another fitment in there as long as it has an 8mm shaft which will make the clock more adjustable.
hope this helps.
Tony

This is a great and versatile Magnetic base for Holding both Standard form Dial gauges and the smaller lever arm finger indicator in a range of applications including, Lathework set ups, Miller set up work and a wide range of inspection table uses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comparison with Noga DG1030
*by T***3 on 27 September 2021*

Thought people would be interested in a comparison with the much more expensive Noga DG1030 (about 130 euro). I own the Noga, and two of this product. Magnetic strength: Basically equivalent. More than you should need. Arm locking: You have to crank it down a little bit harder than the noga, and the noga ultimately holds a little stronger, but it's plenty strong for indicator work or other light utility stuff you might find use for. Fine adjust: Probably the biggest difference. Not even close. Only a small portion of the fine adjust's travel is useable (it is just barely enough). The fine adjust thumbscrew, and 8mm/dovetail locking thumbscrew are both very stiff and unpleasant. It will eventually clamp down well enough though. The noga travels forever in comparison with no effort, and clamps down very easily. Magnetic mating surface finish: Not great. With the noga, I gave it a very quick pass of a stone. With these guys, I had to file, cut off chaff, deburr, and stone. It was only about 5 mins per holder though. General finish: Pretty trash, but not in a way that impacts performance. Overall: I give them 5/5 for 15 quid. I'd have given them this rating in the review's score, if I didn't think there was room for improvement with the fine adjust. I'm going to continue using the noga for all of my precision work, and have plans to just use these guys as magnetic utility articulated arms. Very useful. However, if you don't want to break the bank, these guys would absolutely work for dial test indicator use. Just remember to deburr!
