Product Overview

The Mitutoyo 2901AB-10 is an ISO-type Series 2 dial gauge with a flat back, one-revolution dial, 0.001 mm graduation and 0.16 mm measuring range. Its jewelled bearings support smooth, sensitive pointer movement for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small deviations need to be detected.

The plunger-type gauge follows ISO-type design dimensions. Users should confirm that their existing stands, holders and fixtures are suitable for this mounting pattern before installation. The 0.001 mm graduation provides fine resolution across the 0.16 mm measuring range, making the gauge suitable for precision comparative checks, gauge setting and component-to-master comparisons.

The flat back provides a clean rear profile for stem mounting in magnetic bases, comparator stands and custom fixtures. Its one-revolution dial displays the complete 0.16 mm range within a single pointer revolution, simplifying readings during repetitive inspection. Jewelled bearings help reduce internal friction and support smooth pointer movement.

For applications requiring the same range and graduation with a different mounting configuration, the Mitutoyo 2901A-10 provides a lug back design.

How to Use It

1. Mount the gauge securely by its stem in a suitable rigid stand, magnetic base or fixture.

2. Position the plunger squarely against the surface or feature being measured.

3. Apply a small preload and set the dial to zero against the reference surface or master.

4. Move the workpiece or gauge across the feature and observe the pointer deviation.

5. Record the measurement and avoid exceeding the gauge's 0.16 mm measuring range.

6. Retract the plunger gently after use and store the gauge clean, dry and protected.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Mitutoyo 2901AB-10 used for?

The Mitutoyo 2901AB-10 is used for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small dimensional deviations need to be identified. Its 0.001 mm graduation and 0.16 mm range suit fine-tolerance measurement work.

What are the graduation and range of the 2901AB-10?

The 2901AB-10 has a 0.001 mm graduation and a 0.16 mm measuring range.

What does ISO type mean on the Mitutoyo 2901AB-10?

ISO type indicates that the dial gauge follows an ISO-type design pattern rather than an ANSI/AGD pattern. Check that the intended stands, holders and fixtures are compatible with this design.

What is the benefit of the flat back?

The flat back provides a clean, compact rear profile that suits stem mounting in inspection stands, magnetic bases and suitable fixtures.

What does a one-revolution dial mean?

The pointer covers the complete 0.16 mm measuring range within one revolution. This makes the reading straightforward because the user does not need to track multiple pointer revolutions.

What is the difference between the 2901AB-10 and 2901A-10?

Both models have a 0.001 mm graduation and 0.16 mm measuring range. The 2901AB-10 has a flat back, while the 2901A-10 has a lug back. The appropriate configuration depends on the mounting arrangement of the inspection setup.

What is the benefit of jewelled bearings?

Jewelled bearings are designed to reduce friction in the gauge mechanism, supporting smooth and sensitive pointer movement during comparative measurement.
