Parallel supports, pair (M318.239.28) — Hardened precision parallels, 10 × 28 mm cross-section, 150 mm length (Metav IndustryLine)

The Parallel supports, pair (M318.239.28) are designed as robust reference blocks for workholding and setup in machine shops, providing flat, parallel bearing surfaces for accurate clamping and inspection tasks.

• Hardened, fine-ground special steel
• Height tolerance ±0.01 mm
• 150 mm length for medium setups
• Manufactured to DIN ISO 2768

Consistent accuracy that reduces setup time

Manufactured from special steel, fine-ground and hardened, these parallels provide a reliable datum for machining and inspection. The ±0.01 mm height tolerance ensures repeatable stacking and positioning, which reduces rework and minimises the time spent on alignment. Because the contact faces are ground to tight flatness, clamping forces are distributed evenly; the result is fewer setup adjustments and more predictable machining results.

Balanced size and rigidity for everyday shop use

With a 150 mm length and a compact 10 × 28 mm cross-section, the blocks offer an effective compromise between reach and stiffness. The dimensions suit standard vices, fixtures and inspection benches, allowing secure support of medium-sized workpieces while remaining easy to handle. The modest mass contributes to stable placement without excessive inertia, making the pair suitable for repeated manual handling during batch production.

Durable construction and standardised manufacturing

Produced in accordance with DIN ISO 2768, the supports combine surface integrity with material hardness to resist wear in routine use. The hardened condition increases wear resistance and preserves flatness over many cycles, while the fine-ground finish improves contact accuracy. These attributes extend service intervals and lower the total cost of ownership through sustained performance.

Practical applications and integration into workflows

The pair is intended for use as machine parallels, spacing supports or inspection gauges in clamping setups, gauge fixtures and quality-control benches. Supplied as a matched set, they serve both as a reference datum and as a stable support when performing milling, drilling or measuring tasks. For integration into existing fixturing, the compact profile permits close placement without impeding tool paths or measurement probes.
