Mitutoyo 513-442-16T Dial Test Indicator Kit 9 Piece

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 513-442-16T is a 9-piece horizontal-style dial test indicator kit designed for precise surface, runout, and alignment measurements in machine shop, toolroom, and field service environments. The kit covers a 0.06-inch measuring range with a dial graduation of 0.0005 inches and an accuracy of 0.0005 inches, making it well suited for close-tolerance inspection work. The 40 mm (1.57-inch) diameter dial features a black, glare-free, scratch-resistant crystal face with a 0-15-0 reading format. Machinists, metrology technicians, and precision tooling specialists are the primary users of this instrument.

This kit is appropriate for horizontal-style test indicator applications in both residential shop and commercial production environments. The reversible measuring direction and no-clutch structure allow the indicator to be repositioned quickly during setup without tool changes. The tilted face and universal holder improve sight lines in confined or angled setups. Included components support a range of mounting and contact configurations, making the kit a capable starting point for general inspection tasks. The O-ring seal provides a basic level of protection against coolant splash and shop dust during normal use.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists and metrology technicians using standard indicator holders and magnetic bases. Secure all stem connections and clamp hardware snugly before zeroing the dial to prevent indicator creep during measurement. Avoid applying lateral force beyond the rated measuring range, as overtravel can damage the internal movement. Calibrate against a known reference surface before use in critical tolerance applications.
