Compac M1.6 Test Indicator Contact Point
How are Compac test indicator contact points measured? The catalog length (L1) is measured from the end of the thread to the center of the ball. The actual usable length (from the shoulder to the center of the ball) is shown as dimension L2. Thread size is M1.6
- Carbide .080" (2 mm) contact points came standard with new indicators.
- Although Compac indicators are no longer being sold, we still have a supply of carbide and ruby contact points
Which contact point to choose?

M1.6 Mercer Contact Point
Swiss made Mercer test indicators use the same contact points as Compac (shown on this page). You can order any Compac contact point providing the length (L1) is the same. Use the chart below to determine the correct length for your particular models.
A word of caution: don't confuse these Mercer model numbers with the Interapid metric indicators, some of which have the same numbers (312-1 for example)! Although the Mercer models are all discontinued, you can still use the Compac points.
Swiss made Mercer indicators use the same points as Compac because the indicators are identical.
