Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-730 dial caliper measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions across a 0–150 mm range with a clear analogue dial and 0.02 mm graduation. Unlike digital calipers, it requires no battery or electronic display, making it ready for everyday workshop use.
The caliper is constructed from hardened stainless steel and features ultra-smooth sliding, shock protection and titanium-coated sliding surfaces for durability in demanding working environments. Its bright yellow dial uses large characters for easy reading.
Standard outside and inside jaws, a depth bar and step-measuring capability allow one instrument to handle common dimensional inspection tasks. The dial provides 0.02 mm graduation with 2 mm per revolution.
The Mitutoyo 505-730 is suitable for machinists, QC inspectors, maintenance teams, CNC machine shops, oil and gas workshops, refinery and petrochemical shutdown work, training centres and other industrial applications across Kuwait.
Temperature can affect measurements. Steel expands by approximately 11.5 μm per metre per °C. For a 150 mm steel part, a 10 °C temperature difference can produce approximately 17.2 μm of dimensional change. For critical measurements, allow both the part and caliper to reach the same temperature before taking the final reading.

Frequently Asked Questions
What range does the Mitutoyo 505-730 dial caliper measure?
It measures dimensions from 0 to 150 mm.
Can the Mitutoyo 505-730 measure inside and depth dimensions?
Yes. It provides outside, inside, depth and step measurement capability.
What is the graduation of the 505-730?
The graduation is 0.02 mm, with 2 mm of dial travel per revolution.
Why choose a dial caliper instead of a digital caliper?
The 505-730 requires no batteries and has no electronic display. Its analogue dial provides a direct mechanical reading for everyday workshop measurements.
How do I read the dial on the Mitutoyo 505-730?
Read the whole-unit measurement from the main beam scale, then add the corresponding dial reading. The model has 0.02 mm graduation.
How should I choose between Mitutoyo caliper models with a 0–150 mm range?
Choose the model according to the required graduation, jaw configuration and application. The 505-730 provides a 0–150 mm range with 0.02 mm graduation and 2 mm per revolution.
Can the Mitutoyo 505-730 be recalibrated?
Yes. Periodic calibration through a qualified calibration service can be used to maintain measurement traceability, particularly where quality-system requirements apply.
How should I store and care for the 505-730?
Clean the measuring surfaces after use, keep the caliper away from direct sunlight and coolant, avoid dropping or impacting it, and check the zero position regularly. Periodic calibration is recommended for applications requiring traceable measurements.
