• Height tolerance ±0.01 mm
• Cross‑section 10 x 18 mm, length 150 mm

Repeatable reference planes for reliable production

Manufactured from hardened special steel, finely ground, these parallels deliver a stable datum for setup operations. The compact 10 x 18 mm profile combined with the 150 mm length gives a favourable stiffness‑to‑reach ratio, reducing deflection when supporting components. The specified height tolerance of ±0.01 mm is suitable for precision jigs and fixture work where repeatability is required; this tolerance aligns the component reliably across multiple setups, shortening setup time and reducing scrap rates. The robust surface finish improves contact stability and resists fretting in repeated use.

Improved throughput through predictable accuracy

Consistent reference geometry reduces inspection cycles and downstream rework. The parallels’ measured flatness and dimensional stability contribute to faster clamping and repeatable measurement routines, translating into tangible efficiency gains on the shop floor. Where part handling and alignment are frequent, the pair’s design minimises repositioning and supports secure vice seating or gauge blocks without the need for additional shimming. This pragmatic benefit supports higher throughput while maintaining documented process capability.

Workshop compatibility and industry conformity

Designed to meet general workshop tolerances, the parallels conform to DIN ISO 2768 for dimensional consistency and are well suited to general metalworking, fixture construction and inspection benches. The compact cross‑section makes them easy to store and deploy in tool drawers or transport boxes, while the weight of approximately 0.35 kg per pair balances manoeuvrability and solidity. As a Metav IndustryLine product, the set integrates seamlessly with standard clamping and gauging equipment, offering a durable baseline for everyday precision tasks.
