Mitutoyo 2356A-10 | Lug Back Dial Gauge | 0.25 in, 0.0001 in, ANSI/AGD
Part No. 2356A-10 | Range 0.25 inch | Graduation 0.0001 inch | Lug Back | Jewelled Bearing
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 2356A-10 is an ANSI/AGD-type Series 2 plunger-type dial gauge with a lug back, 0.0001 inch graduation and a 0.25 inch measuring range. It uses jewelled bearings and is designed for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small deviations need to be detected.
Made to American Gage Design dimensions, the 2356A-10 is suitable for compatible stands, holders and fixtures used in inspection rooms and machine-shop environments. Its 0.0001 inch graduation provides fine resolution over the 0.25 inch measuring range, making it suitable for precision comparative checks, setting gauges and comparing components against a suitable master.
The lug-back design provides a dedicated rear mounting point for securing the gauge directly to a compatible bracket or fixture. Jewelled bearings support smooth, sensitive pointer movement by reducing internal friction within the mechanical movement.
For applications requiring a flat-back configuration, the supplied reference identifies the Mitutoyo 2356AB-10 as the corresponding alternative.
