Mitutoyo 201-156 Dial Snap Gauge without Indicator 5-6"
Part No. 201-156 | Range 5–6 inch | Without Indicator
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 201-156 is a dial snap gauge frame designed for fast, repeatable GO/NG checking of shaft and cylinder diameters from 5–6 inch. It is supplied without an indicator, allowing you to fit a compatible dial or digital indicator according to your measurement requirements.
A dial snap gauge is suited to repeated in-process inspection because the gauge can be set to the required nominal dimension and used to check parts quickly. Instead of measuring every shaft or cylinder individually with a micrometer, the operator positions each part between the anvils and uses the indicator reading to determine whether it is within the established limits.
The 201-156 features wide, flat carbide anvils for stable, hard-wearing contact with the workpiece. Its 2 mm anvil retracting stroke helps make loading and unloading parts easier, while the adjustment nut allows the measuring range to be set to the required dimension.
Because the frame is supplied without an indicator, users can select a compatible dial or digital indicator based on their preferred resolution and application requirements.
For adjacent size ranges, the Mitutoyo 201-155 covers 4–5 inch, while the Mitutoyo 201-157 covers 6–7 inch.
