Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 2959AB is an ISO-type Series 2 dial gauge with a flat back design, 0.01 mm graduation, 1.6 mm measuring range and one-revolution dial. It is designed for routine comparative inspection, runout checks and machine or workpiece setup where compact travel and clear readings are required.
The plunger-type gauge follows an ISO-type design, so compatible stands, holders and fixtures should be confirmed before installation. Its 0.01 mm graduation provides practical resolution across the 1.6 mm measuring range, making it suitable for general shop-floor inspection without requiring a long-stroke gauge.
The flat back provides a clean rear profile for stem-mounted applications using suitable magnetic bases, comparator stands or custom fixtures. The one-revolution dial displays the complete 1.6 mm measuring range within a single pointer revolution, helping simplify readings and reducing the possibility of revolution-counting errors.
