Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 3803AB-10 is an ANSI/AGD-type Series 3 dial gauge with a flat back design, 0.0001 inch graduation, 0.025 inch measuring range and jewelled bearings. It is designed for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small dimensional deviations need to be detected.
With a 0.0001 inch graduation over a compact 0.025 inch range, the 3803AB-10 is suited to precision inspection, gauge setting and comparison of components against a master. Its ANSI/AGD design follows American Gage Design dimensions for compatibility with suitable inspection stands, fixtures and holders.
The flat back provides a clean, low-profile rear for stem-mounted applications in compatible magnetic bases, comparator stands and custom fixtures. Jewelled bearings support smooth, low-friction pointer movement for sensitive comparative readings.
The mechanical design is suited to precision-focused inspection environments, including machine shops, toolrooms and quality-control areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Mitutoyo 3803AB-10 dial gauge used for?
The 3803AB-10 is designed for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small deviations need to be detected. Its 0.0001 inch graduation and 0.025 inch range are suited to fine-tolerance inspection applications.
What are the graduation and measuring range of the 3803AB-10?
The Mitutoyo 3803AB-10 has a 0.0001 inch graduation and a 0.025 inch measuring range.
What does ANSI/AGD mean on a dial gauge?
ANSI/AGD refers to American Gage Design dimensions for dial indicators. Gauges designed to these dimensions can be used with compatible stands, holders and inspection accessories.
What is the benefit of the flat back design?
The flat back provides a clean, compact rear profile that suits stem mounting in compatible stands, magnetic bases and inspection fixtures.
What are jewelled bearings used for in the 3803AB-10?
Jewelled bearings support smooth, low-friction movement within the dial gauge mechanism, helping provide sensitive pointer movement during comparative measurement.
Is the 3803AB-10 suitable for precision comparative inspection?
Yes. Its 0.0001 inch graduation and compact 0.025 inch measuring range make it suitable for detecting small deviations during precision comparative inspection, gauge setting and component comparison.
What is the difference between the 3803AB-10 and 3802AB-10?
Both models are listed as ANSI/AGD dial gauges with a 0.0001 inch graduation, 0.025 inch range and flat back. Confirm the exact configuration required when replacing an existing gauge.
