Ceramic Gauge Block 1.004 mm (Grade 1, DIN 861/1) — Metav IndustryLine

The Ceramic Gauge Block 1.004 mm (Grade 1) is a compact reference standard for high‑precision length checks and calibration tasks in metrology laboratories and inspection benches.

• High‑stability ceramic material
• Grade 1 accuracy according to DIN 861/1
• Nominal size 1.004 mm for fine calibration work
• Lightweight reference, suitable for controlled environments

Reliable precision for reference measurements

The block delivers consistent dimensional reference thanks to its Grade 1 classification under DIN 861/1, making it suitable for routine verification and comparison tasks in inspection and calibration workflows. The nominal size of 1.004 mm is produced to tight manufacturing standards, offering a stable benchmark for micrometrology applications. Emphasis is placed on traceable, repeatable measurements rather than speculative performance figures.

Material benefits that reduce measurement uncertainty

Constructed from ceramic, the gauge block offers low thermal expansion and excellent wear resistance compared with many metallic alternatives. These material properties contribute to thermal stability during short handling periods and reduce the risk of surface degradation in non‑corrosive environments. The ceramic body is also non‑magnetic, which is advantageous in precision settings where magnetic interaction could influence small probes or sensitive instruments.

Integration into calibration and inspection routines

As a compact reference standard, the block is straightforward to incorporate into calibration sequences and comparative checks. Its small mass and precise nominal dimension simplify handling on small gauges and comparator set‑ups, while the clear nominal value supports unambiguous documentation in quality records. For traceability, the article is supplied with clear identification (SKU M324.001.004), aiding inventory and audit processes in laboratories and production quality stations.

FAQ

What level of accuracy does Grade 1 indicate?
Grade 1 under DIN 861/1 denotes a high level of manufacturing precision for gauge blocks; the Ceramic Gauge Block 1.004 mm (Metav IndustryLine, SKU M324.001.004) is produced to that standard and intended for reliable reference measurements in inspection routines.

Can the ceramic block be used in a standard calibration routine?
Yes, the gauge block is suitable as a reference in calibration and comparative checks; its 1.004 mm nominal dimension and ceramic composition make it appropriate for controlled laboratory and inspection bench environments.

How should the ceramic gauge block be handled and stored?
Handle the block with clean, dry gloves or tweezers and store it in a protective case or drawer to avoid contamination and mechanical damage; the ceramic surface benefits from careful handling to preserve measurement integrity.

Is the Ceramic Gauge Block 1.004 mm magnetic or corrosion‑prone?
The block is non‑magnetic and ceramic, which offers good resistance to corrosion compared with many metal blocks; nonetheless, it should be kept away from harsh chemical exposure and handled in appropriate ambient conditions.
