Prism Pair M318.272 – 100 x 47 x 40 mm, 90° V‑groove, Metav IndustryLine

The Prism Pair M318.272 is a hardened special‑steel inspection prism designed to support and align cylindrical workpieces in measurement and setup tasks, suitable for shafts up to Ø5–40 mm.

• Hardened special-steel construction
• Precision 90° V-groove for repeatable seating
• Conforms to DIN 876/0 standard
• Supports shafts Ø5–40 mm

Faster, more reliable seating for cylindrical parts

The 90° V‑groove geometry provides a defined contact line for round workpieces, which converts an imprecise resting position into a consistently reproducible datum. With a rated accuracy of 0.008 mm, these inspection prisms reduce the need for repeated adjustments and shorten cycle time during inspection and setup. The controlled contact geometry also reduces point loading, helping to protect delicate shafts while ensuring stable support during caliper or gauge checks. This combination of dimensional control and mechanical stability makes the prisms an efficient choice for routine workshop metrology.

Durable build and standards conformity for long service life

Manufactured from special steel, hardened, the prisms resist wear and maintain form under frequent use, prolonging calibrated performance in busy inspection environments. Conformance to DIN 876/0 indicates manufacturing to an established standard for dimensional and angular accuracy, which simplifies specification and acceptance in professional workshops. The hardened finish decreases maintenance intervals and preserves the precision of the seating faces, translating into lower lifetime cost and fewer process interruptions.

Practical integration into workshop measurement routines

Designed as a compact support solution, the prisms are intended for use in benches, inspection fixtures and alongside handheld instruments such as precision calipers. Their compatibility with shafts from Ø5–40 mm makes them versatile for small to medium cylindrical components commonly encountered in engineering and tooling. Where traceability matters, the clear specification and conformity to DIN give inspection reports and quality records a solid factual basis. The prism pair therefore supports both fast daily usage and documented quality processes without adding complexity.
