Abstract
A dial gauge adaptor having a single shaped part forming two elastically connected legs. One leg is longer than the other one and overlaps it at its end. The tip of the longer leg is designed to receive a dial gauge, while the adaptor itself can be attached to a stand by its other end, at the base of the two legs. An adjustment rocker acting as a toggle lever is located between the two legs of the adaptor. The rocker is displaced at its longer lever end by a ball beating forming the end of a fine adjustment screw.
