What is BS 2795 - Dial test indicators specification about?
BS 2795 is an International Standard that discusses the technical specifications and uses of dial test indicators (lever type) for linear measurement.
BS 2795 relates to dial test indicators of the lever type fitted with an adjustable stylus lever that displaces in either of two opposite directions. Unless otherwise stated, the indicators described in BS 2795 are intended for applications to the work in a direction normal to the stylus lever.
BS 2795 specifies requirements for dial test indicators with metric graduations in scale divisions. BS 2795 deals with instruments reading in imperial units.
