Questions & Answers
It has a mode ECU996 dial, as shown in the picture. However, they actually send the less expensive silver one (which is also available on Amazon). In addition, the smaller dial will not align, despite the fact that it is unrelated to the operation of the unit. This is because the upper plunger screw needed to be threaded one more time by the manufacturer. Given the seller's refusal to replace it, I'm guessing they sell factory seconds on Amazon!
It isn't powered by electricity. The magnet is physically moved away from the bottom of the stand by the dial, and it is no longer strong enough to hold. I'm not sure, but I don't see why you couldn't fly with it.
The total distance traveled by the indicator, I believe, is 1. 100"

Selected User Reviews For Mitutoyo 64PKA075 Tool Kit, 0-1" Range Dial Indicator, Magnetic Base, Plastic Case
This is a well-made kit, as are most Mitutoyo products. The carrying case could be better (it's not padded, it's not well thought out, the stand barely fits, and the case doesn't close tightly). In addition, the dial indicator lacks limit markers, which should be included at this price. Finally, this is a non-returnable item. Even though it isn't stated anywhere on the Amazon page, the item is returnable.
The case has a Harbor Freight feel to it. Having said that, I prefer to use the tool over the case.
The indicator is of good quality, and the magnetic base and arm are both very sturdy. It's used for a variety of things, including measuring runout, backlash, and suspension component play. So far, everything has gone well!.
For the price and accuracy, this is an excellent kit. Arrived with a machine oil coating that was appropriate. There are no issues.
What else needs to be said? It's of good quality, it's simple to use, it has both flat and rounded magnetic attachment points on the stand, it's a high-quality storage box, and so on.
Extremely powerful switch magnet, pivot points tighten well, and gauge is sensitive; well worth the extra money for a higher quality product.
This is a very useful program. Garbage can also be found in this box.
It's very precise and simple to use/read.
