Model 568-966 | Measuring Range 0.5"–1" (12.7–25.4 mm) | Resolution 0.001 mm
Product Description
The Mitutoyo 568-966 Digital ABS Borematic is designed for precise internal diameter measurement from 0.5" to 1" (12.7 to 25.4 mm). Its three-point, self-centring measuring head aligns inside the bore and provides a direct digital diameter reading without the manual sweep required with a conventional dial bore gauge.
Three evenly spaced contact points help centre the measuring head on the bore axis, supporting repeatable measurements. The ABSOLUTE digital encoder retains the zero point after the gauge is switched off, while the display provides 0.00005" / 0.001 mm resolution with Inch/Metric switching.
The complete unit set includes the measuring unit, setting ring, storage box, key, one battery and certificate of inspection. Titanium-coated measuring pins and a tungsten carbide taper are designed for repeated measurement use. The gauge also provides GO/±NG tolerance judgment, HOLD functionality and data output for SPC records.
For best measurement results, allow the gauge and workpiece to reach the same temperature before taking measurements. For larger bore sizes, the Mitutoyo 568-967 covers 1"–2", while the Mitutoyo 568-929 provides an interchangeable-head solution for the 0.5"–1" range.

Who This Product Is Best For
- CNC and conventional machine shops measuring tight-tolerance 0.5"–1" bores
- Oil, gas and utilities maintenance teams checking bearing seats and similar bores
- QC and inspection teams requiring clear digital measurements and GO/NG judgment
- Calibration and metrology laboratories requiring ABSOLUTE-encoder repeatability
- Buyers replacing conventional dial bore gauges with a digital three-point measurement system
How to Use
- Set or verify the display against the supplied setting ring before measurement.
- Insert the three-point measuring head squarely into the bore and allow the measuring points to settle against the bore wall.
- Read the internal diameter on the digital LCD; where tolerance limits are configured, check the displayed GO/±NG result.
- Use the HOLD function or data output when retaining measurements or transferring readings to an SPC system.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bore range does the Mitutoyo 568-966 measure?
It measures internal diameters from 0.5" to 1" (12.7 to 25.4 mm), with Inch/Metric switching on the display.
How is a three-point Borematic different from a dial bore gauge?
A conventional dial bore gauge requires a separate indicator and a manual sweep to locate the turning point. The three-point Borematic self-centres inside the bore and displays the diameter directly on an ABSOLUTE digital display.
What is included with the complete unit set?
The set includes the measuring unit, setting ring, storage box, key, one battery and a certificate of inspection.
How long does the battery last?
The specified battery life is approximately 5,000 hours of use.
Does the Mitutoyo 568-966 support Inch and Metric measurements?
Yes. The display supports switchable Inch and Metric units.
Does the gauge provide GO/NG judgment?
Yes. The gauge supports GO/±NG tolerance judgment when tolerance limits are configured.
Can the gauge be recalibrated after purchase?
Yes. The Mitutoyo 568-966 can be periodically recalibrated through an appropriate ISO/IEC 17025-accredited calibration service to maintain measurement traceability.
Which Borematic should I choose for a different bore range?
The Mitutoyo 568-965 covers 0.275"–0.5", while the Mitutoyo 568-967 covers 1"–2". For interchangeable heads covering 0.5"–1", the Mitutoyo 568-929 is the applicable option.
Is a dedicated individual unit available for smaller ranges?
Yes. The Mitutoyo 568-464 is specified for a 0.5"–0.65" range.
