Mitutoyo 103006 Dial Test Indicator Contact Point
Part No. 103006
General Tech Services LLC — Genuine Mitutoyo Distributor, Kuwait +965 9807 4888
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 103006 is a genuine replacement contact point for compatible Mitutoyo dial test indicators. It features a tungsten carbide ball tip designed for durable, precise contact with the workpiece during comparative measurement and inspection.
The contact point is the part of a dial test indicator that directly contacts the measured surface, so wear or damage can affect measurement consistency. A worn, chipped or bent tip can compromise contact geometry and repeatability. Replacing the contact point with the correct genuine Mitutoyo part helps restore the indicator to its intended configuration.
The tungsten carbide ball tip provides high wear resistance for repeated measurement work across machined surfaces. The 103006 has an overall length of 20.9 mm and a centre-to-shoulder dimension of 17.4 mm.
The Mitutoyo 103006 is listed for use with the Mitutoyo 513-404E, 513-464E, 513-444E, 513-454E and 513-284GE dial test indicators. Confirm model compatibility before ordering if your indicator is not included in this list.
Keeping a genuine replacement contact point available can help reduce downtime when an indicator tip becomes worn or damaged.
For a compatible dial test indicator, see the Mitutoyo 513-464-10E.

Which Mitutoyo indicators are compatible with the 103006?
The 103006 is listed as compatible with the 513-404E, 513-464E, 513-444E, 513-454E and 513-284GE dial test indicators. For other models, confirm compatibility before ordering.
What are the dimensions of the Mitutoyo 103006?
The contact point has an overall length of 20.9 mm and a centre-to-shoulder dimension of 17.4 mm.
Why is the contact point important on a dial test indicator?
The contact point directly touches the workpiece. Its condition and geometry therefore affect how the indicator contacts the measured surface and can influence measurement consistency.
Why does the 103006 use a tungsten carbide ball tip?
Tungsten carbide provides high hardness and wear resistance, making it suitable for repeated contact with machined surfaces.
When should a dial test indicator contact point be replaced?
Replace the contact point if it is visibly worn, chipped, bent or damaged, or if its condition is affecting consistent contact during measurement.
Can I use the 103006 on another Mitutoyo dial test indicator model?
Compatibility should be confirmed before installation. The listed compatible models are 513-404E, 513-464E, 513-444E, 513-454E and 513-284GE.
How should I fit the Mitutoyo 103006?
