Description
Product Overview
This is a premium Noga Articulating Mini Magnetic Base (matching the NF-series profile), specifically featuring the highly desirable Fine Adjustment at the Base. It is the ultimate setup companion for precise dial test indicator (DTI) alignment in tight machining envelopes.
- Base-Mounted Fine Adjust: Unlike models with the adjustment knob up at the indicator head, having the fine-tuning mechanism down at the magnetic base is a game-changer. It means your hand is resting solidly near the machine table while you turn the screw, preventing you from accidentally bumping or vibrating the delicate indicator setup while trying to sweep it to zero.
- Single-Point Articulation: Noga is famous for its central locking mechanism. By turning one single knob, the bottom, middle, and top joints all lock up simultaneously with absolute, rock-solid rigidity.
- Universal Swivel Clamp: The top clamp is designed to securely grip both 6mm stems and standard dovetails. This means it will perfectly hold almost any lever-style dial test indicator in your shop.
- Compact Footprint: As a smaller-profile base, it is perfect for clamping onto lathe chucks, small milling machine tables, or sliding headstock (Swiss) machines where a full-sized mag base simply gets in the way.
Condition
Used (Good Condition / Fully Functional).
This Noga base is in used condition and shows typical signs of shop wear.
- Mechanical Integrity: The most important part of any used Noga is the locking cam. This unit has been checked, and the central locking knob tightens down securely, locking the arms rigidly without creeping or sagging. The magnet switches on and off cleanly with strong holding force. (Note: While the exact model number sticker may be worn or point to a similar NF series, the physical configuration is guaranteed as a base-adjust model).
Brand Information
Noga Engineering (Israel) is universally recognized by machinists as the absolute gold standard for magnetic bases and indicator holders. While their single-knob articulating design has been heavily cloned by budget brands, the holding power, buttery-smooth joints, and durability of a genuine Noga have never been matched.
