As an American Machinist/Millwright It pains me to say but these are better than the American offerings.

Like the old saying in many languages, if you buy cheap tools you'll just be buying again, so just get this the first time.

Good quality Dial Indicator . Works as expected.

Still as good as always, been using them for 35 years

Best of breed indicator. Expect to use this for a long while.

great purchase! Item was exactly as advertised. Fast turnaround time. Would definitely recommend this product!

This indicator seems to be built well. It has a good fit and finish as you would expect to find with Mitutoyo. In terms of repeatability and accuracy I did not have a chance to measure, though the indicator came with a spec sheet. Passing a 2 rev indication within 0.001" accuracy. The only problem I have with the indicator is the bezel ring, it is plastic. It zeros extremely smooth and has a good resistance to hold position. I have compared the indicator movement with a Starret 25-441J indicator(whose bezel ring is also plastic) and I feel that the Mitutoyo is smoother and feels better put together less run out on the stem bore, however the Starrett has better plunger sensitivity. That of course is my own opinion.

As exspected you get what you pay for.I use this indicator every day.I'm a Machinist in the steam turbine and nuclear power industry.So my equiptment has to perform at the highest levels.It's not a starrett but for the money it gets the job done well.The action is smooth and repeats every time.You can spend alot of money on junk or cry once on the good stuff.I only buy starrett mitutoyo noga.I've learned over the 30 plus years of machining if you want good parts coming out you have to invest up front on good indication equiptment. Your cuts will only be as good as your setup.
