Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-732 dial caliper measures outside, inside, depth and step dimensions across a 0–150 mm range. Its clear analogue dial provides a 0.01 mm graduation with 1 mm per revolution, making it suitable for routine dimensional inspection without batteries or an electronic display.
The caliper is constructed from hardened stainless steel, with smooth sliding action and shock protection designed for regular workshop use. Titanium-coated sliding surfaces improve durability, while the bright yellow dial with large characters supports easy reading on the shop floor.
Standard outside and inside jaws, a depth bar and step measurement capability allow one instrument to handle a wide range of everyday dimensional checks. It is suitable for machinists, QC inspectors, maintenance teams, training centres and industrial workshops across Kuwait.
Temperature can affect dimensional measurements. Steel expands by approximately 11.5 μm per metre for every 1 °C change. For a 150 mm workpiece, a 10 °C temperature difference can therefore produce roughly 17.2 μm of dimensional change. Allow the workpiece and Mitutoyo 505-732 to reach the same temperature before taking a final precision reading.

How to Use the Dial Caliper
-
Clean the measuring faces and close the jaws gently.
-
Check the zero position of the dial before measurement.
-
Open the jaws and position them around the feature being measured.
-
Keep the caliper square and properly aligned with the workpiece.
-
Close the jaws gently without excessive measuring force.
-
Read the whole-unit measurement from the main scale and the fractional measurement from the dial.
-
Use the appropriate jaws or depth bar for inside, depth and step measurements.
Frequently Asked Questions
What range does the Mitutoyo 505-732 measure?
It measures dimensions from 0–150 mm.
What is the graduation of the 505-732?
The dial caliper has a 0.01 mm graduation and a dial movement of 1 mm per revolution.
Can it measure inside and depth dimensions?
Yes. The 505-732 supports outside, inside, depth and step measurements.
Why choose a dial caliper instead of a digital caliper?
The 505-732 uses an analogue mechanism and does not require batteries or an electronic display. This can be useful where a mechanical measuring tool is preferred for routine workshop inspection.
How do I read the dial?
Read the whole-unit dimension from the main beam scale, then add the fractional measurement shown on the dial. The dial provides 0.01 mm graduations.
What should I do if my required measurement is outside the 0–150 mm range?
Choose a caliper whose measuring range covers the required dimension. The 505-732 is designed for measurements from 0–150 mm.
Can the Mitutoyo 505-732 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 the caliper?
Clean the measuring surfaces after use, protect the instrument from coolant and direct sunlight, avoid impacts or drops, and check the zero position regularly. Periodic calibration should be scheduled according to your quality requirements.
