It features a 0-100 dial reading with a 5.00 mm total measurement range and a dial graduation of 0.01 mm, giving technicians fine resolution for surface variation checks, runout inspections, and part alignment tasks. The flat back design allows stable mounting against flat reference surfaces. A revolution counter tracks full spindle rotations, reducing read errors during multi-revolution measurements. The glare-free, scratch-resistant crystal keeps the white dial face legible under shop lighting. Metrology professionals, machinists, and QC inspectors are the primary users of this instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis indicator suits applications in machine shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing inspection stations. It is used for checking flatness, parallelism, runout, and part-to-part variation on both ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The 8.00 mm stem diameter and M2.5 x 0.45 thread size are standard for use with common indicator holders, magnetic bases, and transfer fixtures. Green limit markers are included to mark acceptable tolerance bands directly on the dial, supporting go\/no-go inspection workflows. The compact 80.00 mm overall length fits tight setups without interfering with fixturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0-100 dial reading with 0.01 mm graduation for fine resolution measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5.00 mm total range with 1.00 mm range per revolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRevolution counter reduces multi-revolution reading errors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat back design for stable mounting on flat reference surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGlare-free, scratch-resistant crystal for clear dial visibility in shop conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes green limit markers and protective plastic case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ISO and JIS standards for dimensional measurement instruments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard indicator holders, magnetic bases, and transfer stands accepting an 8.00 mm stem diameter.

Secure the 8.00 mm stem in a calibrated indicator holder or magnetic base before use, ensuring the spindle axis is aligned perpendicular to the measured surface. Do not exceed the 5.00 mm measurement range or apply lateral force to the spindle, as either can damage the gear train. Handle the instrument carefully to avoid impacts that could affect calibration; verify calibration against a known reference before critical inspection work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Reading\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00 mm to 5.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Graduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRange Per Revolution\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 N\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2.5 x 0.45\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRevolution Counter\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal\u003c\/strong\u003e: Glare-free, scratch-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\/JIS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MITUTOYO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1044AB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MITUTOYO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563335123250,"sku":"1044AB","price":142.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff1f5c7068cc7136014b0b1e73435a37.jpg?v=1786495763","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mitutoyo-1044ab-dial-drop-indicator-5mm-range-flat-back","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
