Lever gauge 0,8 x 0,01 stem

The Mitutoyo 513-404-10E is an accurate and versatile horizontal lever gauge designed specifically for machine tool alignment and demanding measurement applications. The gauge is anti-magnetic and its lever technology automatically adapts to the surface to be measured, making operation flexible and reliable. The jewel bearing ensures very low friction and smooth motion, allowing reliable measurement of sensitive deviations.

This model offers a measuring range of 0.8 mm and a resolution of 0.01 mm, i.e. each reading corresponds to one hundredth of a millimetre. The dial is set to the type position "0-40-0," which facilitates the observation of both positive and negative deviations. Suitability for harsh environments is underlined by the construction: the O-ring sealing and the integral bezel-glass construction prevent oil and dust from penetrating the instrument, and the frame is made to withstand continuous daily use.

The gauge comes with basic equipment: a Ø 8 mm stem and a Ø 2 mm carbide probe are included. The practical, lightweight design—at approximately 45 g—makes the instrument easy to use, although its performance is very high in terms of measurement accuracy. The accuracy values quoted by the manufacturer show how even small measurement errors can be detected: the maximum permissible error for 10 scale divisions is 5 µm, for one half revolution 6 µm and for the whole measuring range 8 µm; the repeatability is 3 µm and hysteresis is 3 µm. The measuring force is 0.01-0.3 N, which makes the measuring contact light and responsive.

The Mitutoyo 513-404-10E is an excellent choice when measuring small displacements, alignment of workpieces, or other precision measurements. Its high-quality construction, excellent repeatability, and carefully designed clear readings make it a reliable tool for both production and quality control.
