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

I needed to get this for working on the mills at school I am learning to become a machinist so tight budget & this works just as good as a higher priced one.

I have several different mitutoyo products and you get what you pay for. have always been very accurate

At $10, its hard to believe this is really a Mitutoyo branded tool, but it is. Quality is fantastic, very precise and repeatable, down to about a hundredth of a millimeter (as far as I can take it). I much prefer the cylinder style edge finders to the conical style edge/center finders. Its good to have one of the conical type in your toolbox for occasional use on small holes, but 99.9% of the time, this is the one Im reaching for.

It could use a little hand finishing to remove a burr here and there. After about 5 minutes of finishing it works great.

Worth the money over the cheap stuff

I mean, Come on, its just an edge finder... But the surface finish and feel of this thing blow away the SPI/Fowler unit I have. I bought this as a backup for the SPI, but will probably relegate that to backup duty instead. Cant go wrong with Mitutoyo! Down side, is I ordered this with two big wrenches. All items shipped in the same box with poor packing. The soft plastic case of this had a few dings, but no harm to the edge finder luckily.

Works good! Using it for long table setups in the aerospace industry to measure parts on a 565ft table.

great tool at a great price

Seems to be a very nice if unspectacular edge finder. Only had it a week or so but Ive used it a number of times and it did what you want it to -accurately found the edge I was working on. For the price I like what I got!

It looks like a knock off but works. These are kind of simple so not really much to mess up.
