Gauge block 1.17 mm — Single gauge block, DIN EN ISO 3650, Grade 0 (Metav IndustryLine)

The gauge block 1.17 mm is a single, precision ground reference element designed for high-accuracy length standards and small-part inspection tasks in calibration labs and workshops.

• DIN EN ISO 3650 Grade 0 accuracy
• Nominal size 1.17 mm for fine references
• Hardened special steel construction
• Compact cross-section for secure seating

Reliable metrological performance for calibration and control

This precision element serves as a traceable reference for length checks and calibration work. Manufactured to DIN EN ISO 3650 with Grade 0 tolerance, it provides a reproducible baseline that reduces measurement uncertainty when used in comparator stacks or as a single reference. The Grade 0 specification indicates a tight manufacturing tolerance suitable for calibration laboratories and quality-control benches where consistent, verifiable dimensions are required. Using such a standard simplifies conformity checks and supports documented inspection routines.

Durable construction that maintains accuracy under handling

Made from hardened special steel, the block resists wear and keeps its geometry over repeated use, which preserves the reference value over time. The material choice balances hardness and stability so that flatness and parallelism remain within specification after normal handling. The compact design and the specified cross-section allow secure seating in holders and clean wringing with other gauge blocks, which aids quick stack build-up and exact dimension transfer. These practical attributes lower the risk of damage and help maintain long-term measurement reliability.

Practical benefits in workshop and laboratory workflows

As a single small-size reference, this block is particularly useful for fine adjustments, short-length calibration checks and setting up micromachining operations. The nominal 1.17 mm size is convenient for verifying small gaps, punches and fine features where larger standards are impractical. Its low mass facilitates rapid thermal equilibration, reducing temporary measurement drift when brought from storage to the measurement environment. The compact form factor also makes it straightforward to include in inspection kits and portable comparator sets, improving responsiveness during production checks.

Integration into traceable measurement systems

Designed for use within a documented calibration chain, the block supports routine verification and corrective action workflows. When incorporated into stack-ups or compared against higher-level standards, it provides a measurable link that helps demonstrate compliance with quality systems. The straightforward geometry and standardised tolerance class simplify uncertainty budgeting: engineers and technicians can attribute a known reference contribution when calculating total measurement uncertainty, enabling informed decisions about process capability and acceptance criteria.
