Mitutoyo 505-739 |Dial Caliper | Series 505 | ID/OD Carbide Tipped Jaws | Graduation 0.001 Inch | Accuracy ±0.002 Inch | Range 0 to 8 inch | Weight 185 g
Part No. 505-739 | Range 0–8" | Graduation 0.001" | Accuracy ±0.002"
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-739 is a Series 505 mechanical dial caliper designed for measuring outside, inside, depth and step dimensions across a 0–8" range. It provides ±0.002" accuracy with 0.001" dial graduation and requires no battery, making it suitable for routine dimensional inspection in machining, maintenance and fabrication environments.
The caliper uses Mitutoyo's redesigned Series 505 dial movement for smooth slider operation and high shock protection. Its hardened stainless steel construction is suited to regular shop-floor use, while the analog dial provides a direct mechanical reading.
This model has a 0.1" range per revolution, with each dial division representing 0.001". The bezel lock screw allows the dial to be secured at zero, while the slider lock screw can hold the jaw position when a measurement needs to be retained.
Both the outside and inside jaws are carbide-tipped. This provides wear-resistant measuring faces for applications involving hardened, cast or abrasive workpieces.
For a smaller range, the Mitutoyo 505-738 covers 0–6".

Who This Product Is Best For
The Mitutoyo 505-739 is suitable for machinists, quality inspectors, maintenance technicians, fabrication workshops and dimensional inspection teams working with components up to 8".
Its carbide-tipped OD and ID jaws are particularly useful where measuring faces are exposed to harder or abrasive materials. The mechanical dial design also suits workshops that prefer a battery-free measuring instrument for routine inspection.
The 0.1" per revolution dial arrangement provides a clear mechanical indication while retaining 0.001" graduation for fine dimensional checks.
How to Use the Mitutoyo 505-739
-
Clean the measuring jaws and the workpiece before measurement.
-
Close the jaws gently and check the dial position. Adjust the bezel to zero when required, then secure it with the bezel lock screw.
-
Open the jaws beyond the dimension being measured.
-
Position the appropriate outside or inside jaws squarely against the feature.
-
Close the jaws gently using the slider/thumb roller until proper contact is established.
-
Read the beam scale together with the dial indication to determine the measured dimension.
-
Use the slider lock screw when the jaw position needs to be retained for inspection or recording.
-
Clean the caliper after use and store it in its fitted case.
For accurate inspection, avoid excessive measuring force and keep the caliper and workpiece clean and properly aligned.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can the Mitutoyo 505-739 measure?
The 505-739 measures outside dimensions, inside dimensions, depths and steps across a 0–8" range.
What is the accuracy of the Mitutoyo 505-739?
The specified accuracy is ±0.002".
What is the graduation of the 505-739 dial caliper?
The dial graduation is 0.001", with a 0.1" range per revolution.
Does the Mitutoyo 505-739 require batteries?
No. The 505-739 is a mechanical dial caliper and operates without batteries.
Does the 505-739 have carbide jaws?
Yes. The model is supplied with carbide-tipped outside and inside jaws.
What is the difference between the 505-739 and a standard-jaw 0–8" model?
The 505-739 uses carbide-tipped OD and ID jaws. This configuration provides greater resistance to wear when measuring harder or abrasive workpieces. The exact jaw configuration should be checked when comparing it with other Series 505 models.
