Hot Rods Stewart Warner Greenline gauge "pointer"?

What is the small sliding arrow/pointer on the rim of this 2 5/8 S W Greenline gauge called, or are they available--Part number?

 

instrumentation terminology would call it a "set point" pointer. Availability-doubtful.

 

You could probably make your own from some stainless, a few trys will get you there.

Is the pointer a "tell tale"?

 

Not really...a "tell tale" is something that the gauge pointer contacts, and moves to the highest reading.

 

here's another from a for sale add August 2015 HAMB

 

As was suggested you could probably make some out of SS that would be better fitting to your particular gauges, the back bend would have to be sharp and shallow so as not to go too far past the bezel and scratch the dash. Yeah, big help.

 

Stewart Warner part number on the sliding pointer is 429825-2

 

I just sent an inquiry to Stewart Warner. Thanks.
