Tesatast test indicators
with 8mm diameter attachment

 

For all intents and purposes, the Swiss-made Tesatast indicator is identical to Bestest, Swisstast, and Roctest. All parts are interchangeable, including contact points. They are all made by the same manufacturer and only the dials and certain accessories differ. Most significantly, Tesatast indicators come with a metric 8mm diameter dovetail extension attachment, while Bestest is supplied with 1/4" diameter extensions. You will also find Tesatast has several configurations, particularly those with long contact points (1.5"), which are not available in the Bestest models. Other accessories and contact points are available.

For a more detailed comparison of brand names go to page 37.

Repairs

All parts are available and repairs can effectively be made on any of these indicators. Our fixed repair cost is $59 for .0005" models and $69 for .0001" and .00005" models. This includes labor and all parts (except a new carbide contact point which costs $10 extra). It's our policy to replace any damaged or worn parts necessary for the full function of the indicator. This way you'll be sure to get an instrument that's as good as new and one you can rely on.

And, if requested, we'll provide you with a short-form certificate of calibration free with every indicator repair. After all, when your instrument comes back, you need to know that it's accurate.

Why buy from us?

You can probably get it a few dollars cheaper at Penn Tool or J&L Industrial. But, if you buy from us you'll help support a small family business. There's tough competition out there. No one's getting rich here. As an incentive we'll let you know about this deal:

  • we'll replace the crystal on your Tesatast indicator for free if it ever gets scratched, cracks or discolors - for as long as you own your indicator. (see details on this page). Let's see the big guys match that one!

Tesatast side mounted dial

 

Parallel style Tesatast models have dials mounted on the side of the body. There are 3 separate dovetails along the edges of the body as shown in the photo below. They are supplied with an 8mm diameter dovetail extension. Refer to accessories if you need different size holders.

If you need the same parallel style indicator but with a dovetail running along the back, consider the Compac models shown on page 108.
