Ceramic gauge block 1.13 mm – Grade 1 (DIN 861/1) by Metav IndustryLine

The Ceramic gauge block 1.13 mm, Grade 1 (DIN 861/1) serves as a stable, wear‑resistant reference for precision measurement and calibration in metrology laboratories and quality control workshops.

• Grade 1 accuracy to DIN 861/1
• Ceramic substrate with high thermal stability
• Nominal size 1.13 mm for fine reference tasks
• Compact, low‑mass geometry for minimal contact wear

Reproducible reference for high‑precision checks

As a compact reference element, this ceramic end measure delivers consistent dimensional benchmarks for small‑scale inspections and instrument comparisons. The combination of a defined nominal size (1.13 mm) and the Grade 1 tolerance class according to DIN 861/1 provides a clear, measurable basis for verification procedures. In calibration routines or incoming inspection, the block functions as a dependable standard against which micrometres, callipers and comparison instruments can be cross‑checked, reducing ambiguity in pass/fail decisions and supporting process stability.

Why ceramic improves measurement repeatability

Ceramic as a base material offers distinct metrological advantages: low thermal expansion, high hardness and chemical inertness. These properties reduce dimensional drift with ambient temperature changes and limit surface wear during repeated contact measurements, helping to preserve the reference dimension over time. The use of a ceramic substrate therefore enhances repeatability and extends service life compared with many metallic reference pieces, particularly when fine nominal sizes and tight tolerances are required.

Practical handling and integration into workflows

The small format and light mass make the block straightforward to handle during routine checks and portable inspections. Its compact size is particularly suitable for bench‑top metrology tasks or for setting small gap‑gauges and fixtures. Where fine manual contact is required, the reduced mass minimises mechanical loading on the measuring instrument and limits operator‑induced deviation. For traceable measurement chains, the end measure can be incorporated into daily checklists or comparator setups to verify instrument performance quickly and efficiently.

Compatibility and application scenarios

This end measure is intended for precision inspection work and component verification where sub‑millimetre reference standards are required. Typical applications include calibration laboratories, toolrooms, watchmaking and components that demand exact micro‑gapping. The ceramic construction is beneficial where dimensional stability under varying workshop temperatures is a priority. For documentation and procurement, the item is supplied as a labelled gauge block with the manufacturer’s identification and SKU for straightforward inventory management.

FAQ

What level of accuracy does Grade 1 indicate?
Grade 1 (DIN 861/1) designates a tight tolerance class suitable for high‑precision reference tasks; the ceramic gauge block adheres to this standard to ensure consistent measurement comparators.

Can the ceramic gauge block be used with micrometres and callipers?
Yes. The ceramic end measure provides a stable reference for cross‑checking micrometres, callipers and other dimensional instruments in routine inspection and comparator procedures.

Is the ceramic material suitable for repeated contact measurements?
The ceramic construction combines high hardness with low thermal expansion, making it appropriate for repeated contact use while resisting rapid surface wear compared with some softer materials.

How should the gauge block be stored between uses?
Store the block in a clean, dry environment, protected from abrasion and contaminants; use a labelled tray or protective pouch to maintain the reference surface and minimise handling marks.

Does the product include an identifying SKU for inventory control?
Yes. The item is listed as SKU M324.001.13 for straightforward ordering and stock management.
