Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 4046AB is a mechanical dial gauge from Mitutoyo's Series 4 range. It provides metric readings with a 0.01 mm graduation across a 10 mm measuring range, making it suitable for general shop-floor comparison and setup applications.
The 10 mm measuring range extends across multiple pointer revolutions, providing longer measuring travel for applications such as height, depth, position, and comparative checks. When taking measurements near the limits of the range, refer to the Mitutoyo product documentation for the applicable dial layout.
The flat back allows the indicator to be mounted flush against a compatible holder or fixture, which can be useful where mounting space is limited. As an ISO-type gauge, it follows the ISO dimensions used with compatible metric stands and holders.
Typical applications include checking runout and concentricity on lathes, comparing flatness and height on a surface plate, and setting fixtures and tooling. Before ordering, confirm that the measuring range, graduation, back type, and mounting arrangement match your application.
The full 4046AB part number should be specified when ordering to ensure the correct variant is supplied.
