The lateral extension is indicated on a dial gauge of 0.002 mm x 12 mm travel. The extension is magnified 2.5 times and the dial gauge readings are to be divided by 2.5 to get the exact readings. A spacer strip is provided to initially set the dial gauge and can be removed after initial setting. Supplied in a wooden carrying case.
