A dry pressure gauge with a circular spring interconnecting the operational movement end of the Bourdon tube sensor and the driven mechanism that includes added mass to dampen frequencies above a desired design level. The added mass takes the form of added weight on the gauge needle in the form of a circle of material, weights on opposite sides of the needle from the pivot center, or a single mass weight on the needle below the pivot center. Circular spring to mechanism interconnect slotting is included, normally biased to an end limit by a bias spring in the driven mechanism, to allow below connecting spring force movement between the sensor and the driven motion translator to reduce friction.
