Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 2961T is an ANSI/AGD-type Series 2 plunger dial gauge with a back plunger design, one-revolution dial, 0.0005 inch graduation, and 0.04 inch measuring range. It is designed for high-resolution comparative inspection where very small deviations need to be identified accurately.
Made to American Gage Design dimensions, the 2961T is compatible with common inspection stands, fixtures, and holders used in machine shops and inspection rooms. Its 0.0005 inch graduation over 0.04 inch of travel makes it suitable for checking precision-ground parts, setting gauges, and comparing components against a master.
The back plunger design positions the plunger at the rear of the gauge, perpendicular to the dial. This allows convenient mounting in confined spaces while keeping the dial face visible to the operator. The one-revolution dial displays the complete 0.04 inch measuring range in a single turn, helping speed up readings and reducing the risk of miscounting revolutions.
The mechanical movement is designed for dependable day-to-day use on the shop floor. Need a different resolution or shorter travel? The Mitutoyo 2991A-10 offers 0.0001 inch graduation over a 0.008 inch range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Mitutoyo 2961T dial gauge used for?

The Mitutoyo 2961T has a 0.0005 inch graduation and a 0.04 inch measuring range.
What does ANSI/AGD mean on a dial gauge?
ANSI/AGD refers to the American Gage Design standard for dial indicators. Gauges built to this design use standard dimensions that allow compatibility with common stands, holders, and accessories.
What is a back plunger dial gauge?
On a back plunger gauge, the plunger comes out of the rear, perpendicular to the dial. This makes it easier to fit the gauge in confined spaces while keeping the dial readable.
