The Mitutoyo 293-831-30 provides a clear digital readout for quick and straightforward external measurements. Its inch/metric display makes it suitable for workshops working with both measurement systems, while the 0-1" (0-25.4 mm) range covers common small-part measurement requirements.
The ratchet stop applies a consistent measuring force, helping produce repeatable readings during inspection and workshop use. As a no-output model, the 293-831-30 is suitable where measurements are read from the display and recorded manually rather than transferred to an SPC or data collection system.
For improved accuracy, allow the micrometer and workpiece to reach the same temperature before measuring and avoid holding the frame for extended periods. The available product information does not specify an IP rating. For applications around coolant or cutting oil, ask our team about an IP65 coolant-proof Series 293 model.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Mitutoyo 293-831-30 have data output?
No. The 293-831-30 is a no-output model intended for manually recorded measurements.
Can it display both inch and metric measurements?
Yes. It is an inch/metric digital micrometer.
What is the measuring range?
The measuring range is 0-1" (0-25.4 mm).
What type of constant-force device does it use?
The micrometer uses a ratchet stop, which helps apply consistent measuring force for repeatable measurements.
Which is better, a friction thimble or a ratchet stop?
Both are designed to provide consistent measuring force. A ratchet stop provides a distinct clicking action, while a friction thimble provides a smoother, more direct feel. The preferred type depends mainly on operator preference.
Is the 293-831-30 coolant proof?
The available product information does not specify an IP protection rating. If the micrometer will be used around coolant or cutting oil, ask our team about an IP65 coolant-proof Series 293 model.
Should I choose the 293-831-30 or the 293-832-30?
Both models cover 0-1" (0-25.4 mm). The 293-831-30 has a ratchet stop, while the 293-832-30 uses a different constant-force configuration. Our team can help confirm the appropriate model for your application.
How should I care for the instrument?
Wipe the measuring faces clean after use and store the micrometer in its case away from excessive heat, humidity and coolant. Regular calibration is recommended for reliable measurement results.
Can the Mitutoyo 293-831-30 be calibrated?
Yes. General Tech Saudi can arrange calibration services for dimensional measuring instruments.
Can you supply other Mitutoyo instruments?
Yes. General Tech supplies a wide range of Mitutoyo micrometers, bore gauges, calipers, indicators and other precision measuring instruments.
Is genuine Mitutoyo available in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. General Tech is an authorised Mitutoyo distributor in Saudi Arabia.
