Mitutoyo 505-749 | Dial Caliper | Series 505 | Graduation 0.001 inch | Accuracy ±.002 inch | Range 0 to 12 inch
Part No. 505-749 | Range 0–12" | Graduation 0.001" | Accuracy ±0.002"
Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 505-749 is a Series 505 mechanical dial caliper with a 0–12" measuring range, 0.001" graduation and ±0.002" specified accuracy. It measures outside dimensions, inside dimensions, depths and steps with one instrument, providing a versatile solution for general workshop measurement and dimensional inspection.
The mechanical analog dial provides direct readings without batteries. The Series 505 dial movement is designed for smooth slider operation and high shock protection, making the caliper suitable for regular use in machining, fabrication, maintenance and inspection environments.
This model uses standard hardened stainless steel jaws for general-purpose measurement across a wide variety of components. The dial has a 0.2" range per revolution, allowing the jaws to travel relatively quickly across the 0–12" range while retaining 0.001" individual dial graduations.
The long measuring range is useful for larger components such as housings, flanges and plates. Bezel and slider lock screws allow the dial setting and jaw position to be secured when a measurement needs to be retained.

Who This Product Is Best For
The Mitutoyo 505-749 is suitable for machinists, quality inspectors, maintenance technicians, fabrication workshops and other users who need a mechanical caliper with a 12" measuring capacity.
The standard hardened stainless steel jaws make it suitable for general-purpose measurement across mixed workshop applications. Its extended range is useful for larger components that cannot be accommodated by shorter calipers.
The 0.2" per revolution configuration provides faster jaw travel across the long measuring range while retaining a 0.001" dial graduation for reading the measured dimension.
How to Use the Mitutoyo 505-749
-
Clean the measuring jaws and workpiece before measurement.
-
Close the jaws gently and check the dial zero. Adjust the bezel if necessary and secure it.
-
Open the jaws beyond the feature being measured.
-
Position the caliper squarely against the workpiece and close the jaws gently using the slider.
-
Read the main dimension from the beam and the fine value from the dial according to the 0.001" graduation.
-
Use the slider lock when the jaw position needs to be retained for reading or recording.
-
Clean the measuring surfaces after use and store the caliper in its fitted plastic case.
When measuring near the full 12" range, support the instrument appropriately and keep the beam square to the workpiece to help maintain consistent contact.
