Mitutoyo 133196 Drop Indicator Contact Point Steel

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 133196 is a steel drop indicator contact point designed for use with dial test indicators in precision measurement applications. With a contact point diameter of 0.0394 inches (1.00 mm) and a contact point length of 0.7835 inches (19.90 mm), this replacement tip delivers consistent, repeatable contact geometry for accurate linear displacement readings. It is compatible with direction-of-measurement and direction-of-measuring-point configurations, making it suitable for universal application across a range of inspection setups. Metrology technicians, machinists, and quality control professionals install this part when replacing worn or damaged contact points on dial test indicators.

This contact point is intended for use in dimensional inspection tasks common to machine shops, tool rooms, and quality assurance environments. Typical applications include surface runout checks, bore alignment, and feature-to-feature measurements on machined or fabricated components. The small-diameter tip allows access to tight or recessed measurement surfaces. It is specifically matched to Mitutoyo 513-402 and 513-462 dial test indicators and installs without special tools or setup procedures.

Installation Notes

Contact point replacement on dial test indicators is typically performed by metrology technicians or skilled machinists. Before replacing the contact point, remove the indicator from the measurement fixture and ensure no load is applied to the spindle. Use the appropriate wrench or contact point tool to avoid applying torque to the indicator spindle during installation. Handle the contact point tip carefully to prevent damage to the precision-ground surface.
