Packard Motor Car Co Dial Indicator .0001 (1/10,000) 3 1/2 face dia
Made for Packard by Federal Products Corporation of Providence Rhode Island in the U.S.A.
Federal model E-21 with Packard's name printed on the face.
Graduations: .0001 (1/10,000) with a 3 1/2 diameter face.
This
means that when the dial swings from the face numbers of 0 to 5 the
distance measured is only .005 (5/1000's), quite accurate.
(Note: For a reference, the nominal diameter of a persons hair is .003.)
Total swing is smooth.
Appears to have the original bezel.
This
was my Fathers, who was a Tool Maker. I now am up in age from the same
trade and think that maybe someone else would enjoy this item.
Just
think, this actual item was used in the inspection process in the
manufacturing of one of best known old American luxury car lines.
Yes, It is definitely a collectors item. The Packard Motor Car Company closed in 1958
Naturally, as old but little used, this item is sold as-is. I have tried to represent as best I can. Please email with any questions.
Note:
I am offering this item packed in a USPS Medium flat rate box as the
Small flat rate box just does not allow enough room for protective
packing.
The USPS S/H charge
includes insurance.
I can ship UPS, if one desires, S/H would be billed to
your UPS acct. I would refund any S/H the ebay tacks on.

For international customers:
I will ship and do whatever U.S. Customs form(s) that the U.S.
Government requires as directed through ebay or PayPal. As I,
naturally, have no control over your countries customs/duties/import
fees/etc. these would all be your responsibility. (I have inserted this
paragraph to comply with eBay export requirements)
