Level Gauge Gimex 208.004 — dial indicator style level 0.8 mm range, 0.01 mm resolution, 30 mm base

Gimex 208.004 is a dial indicator style precision level designed for accurate horizontal leveling and flatness verification. With a 0.8 mm measurement range, 0.01 mm resolution and a 30 mm base, this level gauge delivers fine displacement feedback suitable for machine tool setup, fixture alignment and precision inspection tasks. The compact dial indicator form factor provides clear analog readout for small angular or planar deviations during adjustment and calibration operations.

Advantages

The instrument combines high resolution with a focused measurement range to detect minute deviations while remaining simple to read and operate. Its 30 mm base offers a stable contact area for mounting on machine beds, surface plates or fixtures. The dial-style display gives continuous analog feedback without relying on batteries or electronics, reducing maintenance needs and ensuring immediate visual response during setup.

Suitable for

• Leveling and alignment of machine tools and milling tables
• Flatness checks on surface plates and fixtures
• Fine adjustment during inspection and metrology setups
• Alignment of jigs, fixtures and assembly fixtures in workshops

Key specifications

• Measurement range: 0.8 mm
• Resolution: 0.01 mm
• Base length: 30 mm
• Dial indicator style analog readout for continuous feedback
• Compact form factor suitable for close-access measurements

How to use

Place the 30 mm base of the level gauge on the surface to be checked or on a mounted fixture. Zero the dial per the instrument’s mechanical adjustment procedure, then move the gauge along the measurement path or adjust the workpiece until the dial indicates the desired level or flatness. Read displacement changes in increments of 0.01 mm within the 0.8 mm range to guide fine alignment and shimming operations.

Usage recommendations

Use on clean, dry surfaces and avoid exposing the instrument to shocks or heavy impacts. For repeatable results, perform measurements at a consistent contact point and re-zero the indicator when repositioning. Store the gauge in a protective case to maintain calibration and protect the dial mechanism.
