Mitutoyo 050101, Edge Finder, 3/8 Dia. Shank, .200 Dia. Tip

I have missed my return window and I cant find where to contact the seller so I will start with this review. I have used many Mitutoyo edge finders over my 24 years of machining and most of them are awesome and last a very long time even through crashes or minor mistakes. This last one which I bought off of amazon was not very good. It worked well for a few weeks and then I began to notice that it would not repeat so I went through the process of checking the machine and it was fine. I grabbed another edge finder and it repeated just fine. so my conclusion was that this edge finder is now no good. I got approximately 4 weeks out of it and usually a Mitutoyo edge finder will last a few years when using it daily. I would really like to have a replacement if anyone sees this who can make this happen. I like the Mitutoyo brand and Im sure I just got the one lemon.

Works as it should, at a great price. Was delivered quickly, with confirmation. I would buy from this seller again.

I dont know who makes this as it has no markings on it. But it does work very well for edge finding on my bridgeport.

Im not pleased with the way it was shipped, there was a small protective slide that it went in, but it wouldnt protect it from blunt damage. Mine came perfectly fine though, not overly oiled either. I love Mitutoyo, I would recommend this, but would let them know it doesnt come overly protected from shipping damage. This is a high precision tool, so slight damage can effect greatly.

A simple tool, yet one thats essential if you do any type of milling, or even precision drilling. Works perfectly! No instructions included, but it is a standard type of edge finder and you can find simple directions on the internet if you arent familiar with this type of tool.

This may be the lower quality of the Mitutoyo line but this edge finder gives me much greater repeatability than my SPI. I am using it at a max of 700 RPM with outstanding results. Totally Satisfied.

My last mitutoyo edge finder lasted 15 years would still be using if a newbie wouldnt have ran into part and broke it.

Great value for my dollar. Bought two one for me the other for my coworker. Use it everyday at work really accurate.

not very sensitove, looks like the real thing, just not the same in operation, buy one better.

Perfect grind, absolute mechanical perfection. Instantly, repeatably, and very visibly gets you within a couple tenths (0,005mm) every time.
