Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 3046A is an ISO-type Series 3 dial gauge with a lug back, 0.01 mm graduation and a 10 mm measuring range. It is designed for long-travel comparative measurement of heights, steps, runout and machine alignment.
The plunger-type gauge follows ISO-type design dimensions, so stands, holders and fixtures should be checked for compatibility. Its 0.01 mm graduation across 10 mm of travel allows longer measurements to be completed in a single set-up, reducing the need for repeated repositioning.
The lug back provides a dedicated rear mounting point for suitable brackets, fixtures or machine setups where stem clamping alone is not practical. Its mechanical movement is suited to routine inspection and workshop measurement.
For a flat back version with the same 0.01 mm graduation and 10 mm range, see the Mitutoyo 3046SB.
