Mitutoyo 101167 Offset Lug Drop Indicator Back

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 101167 is a replacement offset lug back designed for use with AGD Group 2 dial drop indicators. The offset lug configuration positions the mounting point away from the centerline of the indicator body, allowing installation in confined spaces or special fixturing setups where a standard back would not seat properly. Measuring 6.5 mm in diameter at the back contact and 12 mm in overall back thickness, this component is a direct mechanical interface between the indicator body and the mounting stem or lug. It is installed by metrology technicians, machinists, and calibration professionals performing indicator maintenance or setting up precision measurement fixtures.

This back is specified for applications where the standard factory-installed indicator back does not meet the requirements of a particular setup. Typical scenarios include custom gauge stands, fixture plates, or transfer setups where the indicator must be repositioned relative to its lug mount. The offset geometry provides clearance and alignment flexibility not available with a straight lug back. It is suited for use in machine shops, quality control labs, and tool rooms operating AGD Group 2 dial drop indicators that require a back replacement for special application use.

Key Features

• Offset lug geometry allows mounting in tight or non-standard fixture orientations
• Designed as a replacement back for AGD Group 2 dial drop indicators
• 6.5 mm back diameter for precise fit to Group 2 indicator bodies
• 12 mm back thickness provides stable lug engagement
• Direct OEM-sourced replacement from MITUTOYO for maintained measurement accuracy

Compatibility

Designed for use with AGD Group 2 dial drop indicators requiring an offset lug back configuration for special application mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified metrology technicians or machinists familiar with dial indicator disassembly and reassembly procedures. Before replacing the indicator back, remove the indicator from any active fixture and ensure no load is applied to the spindle. Use appropriate non-marring hand tools to avoid damage to the indicator body or the back seating surface. Verify proper seating and lug alignment before returning the indicator to service or submitting it for calibration verification.
