Parallel blocks, pair M318.237.17 – 100 mm, 4 × 17 mm, hardened special steel (Metav IndustryLine)

A Parallel blocks, pair M318.237.17 designed for precision workpiece support and setup in machine shops and inspection benches

• Hardened, finely ground special steel
• Nominal height tolerance ±0.01 mm
• 100 mm length for standard set-ups
• Conforms to DIN ISO 2768

Consistent precision for setup and inspection

The pair of precision parallels delivers a measurable improvement in routine clamping and inspection tasks. With a nominal height tolerance of ±0.01 mm, the blocks provide repeatable reference faces that reduce adjustment time and measurement uncertainty. The 100 mm length combined with a 4 × 17 mm cross-section balances reach and rigidity, enabling stable support for typical workpieces without introducing significant deflection. This stability translates into fewer reworks and faster throughput on the shop floor.

Durable construction that preserves accuracy

Manufactured from special steel, finely ground and hardened, these blocks maintain flatness and edge definition under regular use. The surface finish limits abrasion and the hardening process reduces wear, which helps sustain the specified tolerance over time. For workshops seeking durable tooling, the material choice minimises the need for frequent replacement while maintaining the precision required for reliable downstream machining and measurement processes.

Practical benefits for everyday workshop workflows

As a matched pair, the blocks simplify fixturing and height-matching tasks on vises, parallels and inspection plates. The compact cross-section supports versatile positioning, and adherence to DIN ISO 2768 ensures compatibility with common workshop standards. These attributes contribute to shorter set-up times and more consistent part quality, making the parallels a pragmatic addition to general metalworking, toolroom and quality-assurance environments.

Transparent specification supports decision-making

Clear technical conformity and measurable data provide a factual basis for purchase decisions: length 100 mm, cross-section 4 × 17 mm, weight 0.13 kg and the declared height tolerance ±0.01 mm. Such objective information allows planners to evaluate the components against existing fixtures and tolerance budgets, and to integrate the parallels into inspection procedures with confidence.
