Mitutoyo Dial Depth Gage A 527-301-50

Description

The Mitutoyo Series 527 Dial Depth Gauges with Fine Adjustment, Caliper Type, Metric, depending on the model, have a measurement range of either 0 to 150mm or 0 to 200mm, a resolution (or smallest graduation interval) of 0.05mm, with + or – 0.05mm of accuracy. The dial gauge interface provides precise and easily readable measurements. These gauges are made of hardened stainless steel. The bases of the units are 100mm long, and the measuring faces are hardened and lapped for durability and accuracy. The gauges have a fine adjustment screw for taking precise measurements. An optional wider extension base is sold separately. Depth gauges are typically used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering.

Depth gauges are precision measuring instruments used to determine the depth of any shape that has a step, groove, or slot. These gauges often take the form of sliders that travel on a measuring beam or rods, are moved to position by hand, and then adjusted with a calibrated screw. The base of the gauge rests at the top of the shape whose recession is to be measured, while the beam or rods extend to the bottom of the recession to determine the measurement. Gauge position is read from a graduated scale, dial, counters, or an electronic display.
