Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-682 dial caliper measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions across a 0–200 mm range. Its clear analogue dial provides a 0.01 mm graduation and ±0.03 mm accuracy without batteries or an electronic display.
The caliper is built from hardened stainless steel and features an ultra-smooth sliding mechanism with strong shock protection. Titanium coating on the sliding surfaces supports durability, while the bright yellow dial uses large characters for easy reading.
The 505-682 is suitable for machine shops, QC inspection, power and desalination plant maintenance teams, and oil and gas service contractors in Kuwait.
For close-tolerance measurements, allow the caliper and workpiece to reach the same temperature before measuring. Steel expands approximately 11.5 μm per metre per °C; over 200 mm, a 10 °C temperature difference can result in approximately 23.0 μm of dimensional change.

Frequently Asked Questions
What range does the Mitutoyo 505-682 dial caliper measure?
It measures 0–200 mm.
Can it measure inside and depth dimensions?
Yes. The 505-682 measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions.
Why choose a dial caliper over a digital one?
The dial design requires no batteries and has no electronic display, providing a conventional analogue measurement method.
How do I read the dial?
Read the whole-unit measurement from the beam scale, then add the dial reading. The graduation is 0.01 mm per division.
What are the graduation and accuracy?
The graduation is 0.01 mm and the stated accuracy is ±0.03 mm.
What are the key construction features of the 505-682?
The caliper uses hardened stainless steel construction, an ultra-smooth sliding mechanism, shock protection and titanium-coated sliding surfaces.
Which model should I choose if my part is outside 0–200 mm?
The 505-682 covers 0–200 mm. The Mitutoyo 505-732 covers 0–150 mm, while the 505-731 also provides a 0–200 mm range.
Can the Mitutoyo 505-682 be recalibrated?
Yes. Periodic calibration through an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited calibration service can help maintain measurement traceability.
How should I store and care for it?
Wipe the measuring faces clean after use, keep the instrument away from direct sunlight and coolant, avoid dropping it, and check the zero regularly. Periodic calibration is recommended when measurement traceability is required.
