Magnet Base

SchiflerSold by Gearo

A magnet base is a sturdy mounting device that uses a powerful permanent magnet to securely attach measuring instruments—such as dial indicators or test indicators—to metal surfaces. It typically features an on/off magnetic switch, adjustable arms or joints for precise positioning, and a rigid structure to minimize vibration. Magnet bases are widely used in machining, inspection, and alignment tasks to hold instruments firmly in place while taking accurate measurements.
