Mitutoyo 133017 Dial Indicator Contact Point

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 133017 is a flat point contact point accessory designed for use with Mitutoyo dial test indicators. Contact points are the interchangeable probe tips that physically touch the workpiece surface during measurement, making them a critical component for accurate indicator readings. This contact point measures 0.31 inches in overall length and is sold as a single unit. It is intended for metrology and quality control environments where consistent, repeatable surface contact is required. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and quality control inspectors are the primary users in precision measurement applications.

This contact point is suited for use in flat point measurement applications where a broad, stable contact surface is needed. It is commonly used in machine shops, inspection departments, and manufacturing environments where dial test indicators are used to check runout, surface variation, and part alignment. The flat point geometry is appropriate for flat or slightly curved surfaces where a spherical point would introduce contact error or instability.

Key Features

• Flat point contact geometry for stable contact on flat and near-flat surfaces
• Overall length of 0.31 inches for compact fitment in tight indicator setups
• Designed as a direct accessory for Mitutoyo dial test indicators
• Sold individually, allowing targeted replacement without purchasing a full set
• UNSPSC Code 41111600 for procurement and cataloging compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use with Mitutoyo flat point dial test indicators. Specific compatible indicator models were not provided in the product data. Verify fitment against your indicator model prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Contact point replacement is typically performed by metrology technicians or machinists using standard indicator wrenches or small open-end wrenches. Before replacing a contact point, remove the indicator from the measuring setup to avoid accidental movement or damage to the spindle. Do not overtighten the contact point, as this can damage the indicator spindle threads. Verify indicator calibration after replacing any contact point.
