End gauge 18 mm (gauge block) – Grade 1, DIN EN ISO 3650 | Metav IndustryLine

The End gauge 18 mm is a hardened gauge block designed as a compact length standard for precision inspection and calibration tasks in industrial metrology

• Grade 1 accuracy to DIN EN ISO 3650
• Hardened special steel construction
• Compact 18 mm nominal length

Consistent accuracy for reliable quality control

A measurement standard with Grade 1 specification and conformity to DIN EN ISO 3650 provides a documented tolerance class that supports process control and instrument verification. As a compact length standard, this gauge block offers a defined nominal dimension of 18 mm, making it immediately usable as a reference for setting instruments, verifying calipers or comparing against master standards. The clear normative basis simplifies documentation and helps maintain production stability by reducing measurement uncertainty at the control point.

Robust design for repeated use in the workshop

Manufactured from hardened special steel, the component resists wear and maintains its dimensional stability over many cycles of use. The specified cross-section (up to 10 mm: 30 x 9 mm; from 10.1 mm: 35 x 9 mm) balances handling comfort with sufficient mass to avoid user-induced deflection, so routine handling produces repeatable results. At approximately 0.035 kg the piece is compact yet substantial enough to withstand regular use on an inspection bench without compromising the calibration interval expected of a workshop standard.

Practical compatibility and traceability in everyday metrology

The block's simple geometry and standard conformity make it compatible with conventional comparison methods and with common workshop instruments. Labelling with the nominal value and the applicable standard assists in inventory and calibration records, supporting traceability chains. Where traceable standards are required for audits or quality management, the normative reference to DIN EN ISO 3650 clarifies acceptance criteria and streamlines integration into existing calibration routines.
