HDLNKAK Precision Dial Indicator 0-1", Resolution: 0.001", with Case

I have had two of these.. The first one was froze up. No movement at all. So I sent it back. The replacement one is sticky and seldom goes back to zero. Not worth sending it back a second time. I have to remember, you get what you pay for…

I checked this against both a digital indicator and the DRO on my mill and it seems to land well within the stated accuracy claims. Repeatability was good during testing and the needle movement is smooth across the full range with no obvious sticking or weird jumps. The big selling point here is the full 2 inch travel. That's a lot more useful than the usual short travel indicators for setup work on larger parts or machines. I tested it on a mill and it handled general alignment and measurement jobs without complaint. Dial is easy enough to read and the action feels reasonably well damped. One thing worth noting is the barrel measures about 9.5mm, so this will not fit standard 8mm indicator holders without an adapter. Not really a flaw, just something to know before buying if you already have a magnetic base or mount set up for smaller indicators. Overall this feels like a solid inexpensive indicator. Accurate enough for normal shop work and the long throw makes it genuinely handy to have around.

Great value for the money for this 2 dail indicator. The quality is great and looks like the brand one of my former aerospace place. The dail is very easy to use and is also very easy to read. It is also very versatile and easy to mount to different setup. Would the 2 I wouldn't have to change as often and will have my most critical setup for 1 perm and one for mobile. Highly recommended

Got this from my boyfriend who is a machinist, and he’s really picky. If this stands for anything, he uses this thing every day and I’ve heard no complaints. Other than that I don’t know anything about it? It came nicely packed. He said it was good for the value and decent quality.

This is a pretty good dial indicator on the cheap. It comes in a blue case and seems fairly accurate with everything I've seen so far. I have this affixed to a bar so that I can measure the wobble on several different spindle tools I have. It's working great so far.

This is a nice little low cost solution dial indicator. The analog display is easy to read. There are multiple ways to mount it. The dial turns to adjust the zero and the movement is smooth and consistent. Very happy with this acquisition.

Seems accurate and mounts easily to the mount I have here... Checked runout on my Harley crank with it and was the same measurement as my Snap On...

This is a nice lightweight, easy to read dial indicator. I plan to use it to align my table saw and fence. It will also be useful for making sure my bandsaw fence is parallel to the blade. This set includes just the dial indicator. It has a projection in the back with a hole in it so you can affix it in a stable place. There are no mechanisms provided to do this. The probe is very sensitive and glides very smoothly in and out.
