Inspection mandrel M318.913 — cylindrical test mandrel, Ø42 x 500 mm, runout 0.005 mm (Metav IndustryLine)

An inspection mandrel M318.913 designed for precise runout verification and alignment checks in workshop and production environments.

• High runout accuracy 0.005 mm
• Hardened gauge steel construction
• Both ends centred for precise alignment

Ensure measurable runout control for reliable quality decisions

The mandrel delivers a verified runout accuracy of 0.005 mm, enabling objective assessment of spindle, chuck and component concentricity. This level of precision converts measurement uncertainty into actionable data, reducing rework and scrap rates. By using a calibrated reference shaft in inspection routines, traceable deviations become immediately apparent and measurable, improving process capability studies and in‑line quality checks. The focus here is on measurable outcomes: repeatable checks and faster pass/fail decisions.

Built for repeatable alignment and straightforward handling

Constructed from hardened gauge steel, the cylindrical mandrel offers long service life and resistance to abrasion during repeated seating in fixtures. The geometry Ø42 x 500 mm provides sufficient reach for medium-sized components while keeping stiffness high; the component mass of 11 kg gives stable contact under measurement forces. Both ends are centred, allowing mounting between centres or in bespoke test fixtures for concentricity and runout inspections. The straightforward form factor reduces fixturing complexity and supports consistent measurement technique.

Confidence through trusted supply and practical application

As a Metav IndustryLine product, this mandrel is intended for demanding workshop use and inspection benches where reproducibility matters. The solid construction and precise finishing make it a dependable reference for incoming inspection, periodic machine checks and tooling set-ups. Combining a purpose-built measuring artefact with a transparent supply chain from Metav Werkzeuge supports continuous availability and straightforward replenishment, helping to keep inspection routines uninterrupted and production on schedule.
