Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 1167A is an ANSI/AGD-type Series 1 dial gauge with a back plunger design, 0.001 inch graduation and a 0.2 inch measuring range. It is designed for routine comparative inspection, runout checks and machine or fixture set-up work where compact travel and clear analogue readings are required.
The back plunger positions the measuring plunger at the rear of the gauge, perpendicular to the dial face. This configuration is useful when mounting space is limited while keeping the dial visible to the operator. The 0.001 inch graduation provides practical resolution across the compact 0.2 inch range.
Built to ANSI/AGD dimensions, the 1167A is suitable for compatible inspection stands, fixtures and holders commonly used in machine shops and inspection environments. Its mechanical movement is suited to regular day-to-day workshop measurement.
Comparing versions? The Mitutoyo 1168A is also listed with a 0.001 inch graduation, 0.2 inch range and back plunger design. Confirm the exact configuration required before ordering.

What are the graduation and measuring range of the 1167A?
The Mitutoyo 1167A has a 0.001 inch graduation and a 0.2 inch measuring range.
What does ANSI/AGD mean on a dial gauge?
ANSI/AGD refers to the American Gage Design standard for dial indicators. Gauges designed to these dimensions can be used with compatible stands, holders and accessories.
What is a back plunger dial gauge?
A back plunger dial gauge has its measuring plunger positioned at the rear of the gauge, perpendicular to the dial face. This arrangement can make the gauge easier to mount in confined spaces while keeping the dial readable.
Is the 1167A suitable for routine runout checks?
Yes. The 0.001 inch graduation and 0.2 inch range make the 1167A suitable for comparative inspection, runout checks and set-up applications within its measuring range.
What is the difference between the 1167A and 1168A?
Both models are listed as ANSI/AGD Series 1 dial gauges with a back plunger, 0.001 inch graduation and 0.2 inch range. The supplied information identifies the 1168A with a reverse dial face, while the 1167A is not listed with that feature. Confirm the required configuration before ordering.
