Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-731 dial caliper measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions across a 0–200 mm range. Its easy-to-read analogue dial provides 0.02 mm graduation with 2 mm per revolution, giving clear dimensional readings without batteries or an electronic display.
Constructed from hardened stainless steel, the caliper features ultra-smooth sliding and strong shock protection for dependable daily workshop use. Titanium coating on the sliding surfaces enhances durability, while the bright yellow dial with large characters makes readings easy to see.
The Mitutoyo 505-731 is suitable for machine shops, power and desalination plant maintenance teams, oil and gas service contractors, fabrication workshops and QC inspection applications across Kuwait.
Temperature can affect dimensional measurements. Steel expands by approximately 11.5 μm per metre per °C. At 200 mm, a 10 °C temperature difference can change the measured length by approximately 23.0 μm. For close-tolerance work, allow the workpiece and caliper to reach the same temperature before taking the final measurement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What range does the Mitutoyo 505-731 dial caliper measure?
It measures from 0 to 200 mm.
Can the 505-731 measure inside and depth dimensions?
Yes. It measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions.
What is the graduation of the Mitutoyo 505-731?
The graduation is 0.02 mm.
What does 2 mm per revolution mean?
The dial completes one full revolution for 2 mm of movement, with individual graduations corresponding to 0.02 mm.
Why choose a dial caliper over a digital caliper?
The 505-731 uses an analogue dial and does not require batteries or an electronic display. This provides straightforward measurement for routine workshop applications.
How do I read the Mitutoyo 505-731 dial?
Read the whole-unit value from the main beam scale and then add the dial reading. Each dial graduation represents 0.02 mm.
Which Mitutoyo model should I choose for measurements up to 200 mm?
The 505-731 provides a 0–200 mm range. Other Mitutoyo 505-series models, including the 505-682 and 505-733, can be compared according to their specific measurement and configuration requirements.
Can the Mitutoyo 505-731 be recalibrated?
Yes. Periodic calibration through an appropriate calibration service can verify measurement performance and maintain traceability where required.
How should I store and care for the 505-731?
Wipe the measuring faces clean after use, keep the instrument away from direct sunlight and coolant during storage, avoid dropping it, and check the zero regularly. Schedule periodic calibration according to your quality requirements.
