Setting ring 17 mm — Gauge ring, hardened and lapped, Form C (Metav IndustryLine)

The Setting ring 17 mm is a precision reference ring for setting and checking internal diameters and for use as a workshop master when calibrating small bore gauges and measuring instruments.

• Hardened and lapped gauge steel
• Conforms to DIN 2250 and DIN 286 JS 3
• Form C for stable seating and repeatability
• Precise 17 mm reference diameter

Reliable reference for workshop and inspection

A well‑executed reference simplifies routine metrology. The gauge ring is manufactured from hardened and lapped gauge steel, providing a wear‑resistant contact surface that keeps tolerance drift to a minimum during frequent use. Thanks to its compact diameter, the ring serves as a straightforward setting standard for bore gauges and dial bore indicators, enabling consistent adjustment of measuring instruments and supporting rapid checks in production and inspection areas. The design reduces measurement uncertainty by offering a stable reference surface that interfaces cleanly with common metrology probes.

Traceable tolerances and what they mean for quality control

Conformity to DIN 2250 in combination with DIN 286 JS 3 tolerance grading guarantees a clearly defined dimensional class for the ring. The JS 3 designation indicates a tight tolerance band suitable for precision workshop tasks where snug fit and reliable interchangeability are required. For production control this translates into predictable set‑up behaviour and fewer adjustment cycles when transferring nominal sizes from drawing to machine. The standardised specification simplifies documentation and audit trails within quality systems and supports routine verification against other calibrated references.

Design details that improve repeatability and handling

Form C geometry gives a stable seating surface and a compact contact area, helping to avoid rocking or misalignment when placing the ring on a fixture or when engaging measuring probes. The finished, lapped bore surface reduces local contact stress and minimises in‑use wear, extending the effective life of the reference. Robust processing and controlled hardening ensure the component maintains its form under normal workshop conditions; the result is a reference that supports repeatable readings and reduces downtime caused by recalibration needs.

Practical advantages from a trusted metrology partner

Sourcing the ring from Metav IndustryLine provides more than a single component: it adds a supply chain partner experienced in precision tools. Metav’s approach emphasises dependable stock and clear delivery processes so that workshop planning remains uninterrupted. For teams that manage multiple gauging tasks, having standardised, durable references reduces the number of ad‑hoc measurements and speeds up inspection loops — a pragmatic efficiency gain that supports overall process reliability.
