Dial gauges B 7503-1992
1 Scope This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the dial gauges of 0.01
mm in scale interval and 1 mm in spindle movement per one revolution of long
pointer, and of 0.001 mm in scale interval and 0.2 mm in spindle movement per
one rotation of long pointer (hereafter referred to as the "dial gauges”)
Furthermore, the measuring ranges in respect to the scale intervals shall
be as given in the following:
(1) 5 mm and 10 mm for the dial gauges of 0.01 mm in scale interval
(2) 1mm, 2 mm and 5 mm for the dial gauges of 0.001 mm in scale interval.
Remarks: The standards cited in this Standard are as given in the follow-
ing:
JIS B 0205-Metric coarse screw threads
JIS B 0209-Limits of sizes and tolerances for metric coarse
screw threads
JIS B 1501-Steel balls for ball bearings
JIS B 7506-Gauge blocks
JIS Z 8108-Glossary of terms used in instrumentation
2 Definitions For the purpose of this Standard, the following definitions
apply, and others are in accordance with JIS Z 8103
(1) dial gauge That measuring instrument of which spindle with a measur-
ing pointer transmits the linear motion in parallel to a circular dial
mechanically to the long pointer at a terminal in a rotary motion, and this
long pointer indicates the displacement of the spindle on a dial having
graduation lines which have divided the whole circular periphery at equal
intervals
(2) accuracy on wide range pressing-in The difference between the highest
point and the lowest point on the ordinate of the error diagram (see
Attached Figs. 1 and 3) over the entire measuring range when the spindle
is pressed in.
(3) accuracy on narrow range pressing-in Within the measuring range when
the spindle is pressed in, the difference between the highest point and the
lowest point on the ordinate of the error diagram (see Attached Figs. 2 and
4) for the initial one revolution (narrow range)
(4) narrow range adjacent error In respective cases where the spindle is
pressed in and goes out, the maximum value of the differences of errors at
two positions by 10 scales apart within a narrow range2
B 7503-1992
(5) retrace error The maximum value of the differences of indications for the
Same measuring quantity when the spindle is pressed in and goes out.
(6) repeatability At an arbitrary position within a measuring range, the max-
Enum differance of the indicated values in the case where measurements
have been repeated under the working conditions as given in the following.
(a) Apply the measuring point at various speeds against a plane which is
not deformed as far as possible.
(b) Place the paralleled-plane plate being touched with the measuring
pointer in a plane vertical to the axial line of spindle, and allow it to
move in an arbitrary direction
3. Names The names of the principal part of the dial gauge shall be as
given in Fig 1

4.1 Accuracies of indications The tolerances on accuracies of indications of
dial gauges shall be in accordance with Table 13

Remarks: The values of this Table shall be those of at 20°C
Informative reference: The values of this Table for 0.001 mm in scale inter-
val are those when the spindle of dial gauge has been
held vertical and downward or the dial has been held
upward in horizontal, and in the cases of other pos-
tures, these may be increased up to 25 %
42 Measuring force The measuring force of the dial gauge shall be in accord-
ance with the following:
(1) In the case where the spindle has been placed in vertical and downward,
the maximum measuring force shall not exceed 1.5 N.
(2) The difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the
measuring force in respect to the same moving direction of the spindle
shall not exceed 0.6 N. However, for that of 0.001 mm in scale interval
and 5 mm in measuring range shall not exceed 0.7 N.
(3) At an arbitrary position in the measuring range, the difference between the
measuring forces, when the spindle is pressed in and goes out, shall not ex-
ceed 0.6 N for the dial gauge of 0.01 mm in scale interval and shall not ex-
ceed 0.7 N for the dial gauge of 0.001 mm in scale interval. However, for
that of 0.001 mm in scale interval and 5 mm in measuring range, it shall
not exceed 0.9 N
5 Shapes and dimensions

Remarks1. It should be preferable that the thickness of graduation line

2, In order to facilitate the reading of the scale, graduation lines
shall be attached with corresponding numerals,
6, Functions ‘The functions of the dial gauges shall be in accordance with
the following:
(1) When the spindle is being pressed in, the long pointer shall rotate in the
clockwise direction
(2) When the stroke of spindle (displacement) has been read by the rotation of
the long pointer, the stroke of the spindle shall be as given in the following:
Furthermore, the cardinal point shall be the farthest position on the
dial from the measuring pointer
(a) For the dial gauge of 0.01 mm in scale interval, that point where the
long pointer has moved by 0.1 mm from its standstill point shall be
considered to be the cardinal point of the measuring range, and it
shall be 02 mm or over exceeding the terminal point of the specified
measuring range7
B 7503-1992
(>) For the dial gauge of 0.001 mm in scale interval, that point where the
long pointer has moved by 0.02 mm from its standstill point shall be
considered to be the cardinal point of the measuring range, and it
shall be 0.05 mm or over exceeding the terminal point of the specified
measuring range
(2) In the dial gauge of 0.001 mm in scale interval, the amount of movement of
the spindle exceeding the terminal point of measuring range shall be 2.5
mm or over for that of 1 mm in measuring range, and be 15 mm or over
for that of 2 mm in measuring range. However, for that of 5 mm in
measuring range, no prescription shall be made.
(4) The rotation of the outer frame shall be smooth, and the dial shall be
capable of being fixed at an arbitrary position
(5) The clearance between the end pointed part of long pointer and the dial
shall be 1 mm or under, and the clearance during rotation of the long
pointer shall be uniform
(6) The short pointer shall be so constructed as to indicate the number of
revolutions of the long pointer or the effective stroke of the spindle. How-
ever, in the case where particularly specified, the short pointer may also be
omitted

point of the dial gauge shall be in accordance with JIS B 1501, or that of equal

mances of the dial gauges shall be in accordance with Table 28
