Mitutoyo 2118A-10 | Dial Gauge | Lug Back | ISO Type | Series 2 | Jewelled Bearing | Graduation 0.001 or 0.005 mm | Range 5 mm
Part No. 2118A-10 | Range 5 mm | Graduation 0.001/0.005 mm | Lug Back | Jewelled Bearing
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 2118A-10 is an ISO-type Series 2 plunger-type dial gauge with a lug back, 0.001/0.005 mm graduation and a 5 mm measuring range. It uses jewelled bearings and is designed for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small deviations need to be detected accurately.
Made to ISO-type design dimensions, the 2118A-10 is suitable for compatible stands, holders and fixtures used in precision inspection setups. Its 0.001/0.005 mm graduation provides fine resolution across the 5 mm measuring range, making it suitable for checking precision-ground parts, setting gauges and comparing components against a suitable master.
The lug-back design provides a dedicated rear mounting point, allowing the gauge to be secured directly to a compatible bracket, fixture or machine where a stem-only mounting arrangement is not suitable. Jewelled bearings support smooth, sensitive pointer movement by reducing internal friction within the mechanical movement.
For applications requiring a flat-back configuration, the Mitutoyo 2118AB-10 provides the corresponding flat-back design with the same 0.001/0.005 mm graduation and 5 mm measuring range.

How to Use It
-
Mount the gauge securely using its lug back or suitable stem arrangement on a rigid bracket, stand or fixture, keeping the plunger aligned with the surface being measured.
-
Apply a small amount of pre-load to the plunger and rotate the bezel to establish zero against a suitable reference surface or master.
-
Move the workpiece or gauge across the feature being inspected and observe the dial reading to determine the deviation.
-
Retract the plunger carefully after use and store the gauge clean, dry and protected.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Mitutoyo 2118A-10 dial gauge used for?
