Ceramic gauge block 1.33 mm, Grade 1 (DIN 861/1) — Metav IndustryLine

The Ceramic gauge block 1.33 mm, Grade 1 (DIN 861/1) is a small, high‑stability reference element intended for dimensional calibration, comparator setups and precise stepping in metrology and quality control environments

• Thermally stable ceramic construction
• Grade 1 accuracy (DIN 861/1)
• Nominal size 1.33 mm, lightweight 2 g

Reliable reference for repeatable measurements

A Grade 1 ceramic block provides a compact, high‑precision reference that supports reproducible measurements in production and laboratory settings. With its 1.33 mm nominal dimension and tight manufacturing control under DIN 861/1, the block acts as a trustworthy standard when setting micrometres, checking gauge interfaces or verifying comparator heads. The ceramic substrate contributes to dimensional integrity, so the reference value remains consistent across repeated use.

Stable results through reduced thermal influence

Ceramic materials are chosen for their low coefficient of thermal expansion and thermal stability, reducing drift when temperature control is limited on the workshop floor. Compared with traditional steel references, the insulating nature of the material helps to maintain a steady measurement baseline during short exposure to ambient changes. The wear resistance of the ceramic surface also supports long service life, keeping contact faces intact and preserving measurement repeatability over many cycles.

Compact size with practical handling and storage

At only 2 g, the block is exceptionally lightweight and easy to integrate into inspection routines and set‑ups without adding mass that could affect fragile fixtures. Its compact footprint simplifies storage in dedicated trays or protective cases and allows fast insertion into gauge nests or between reference faces. The small form factor is especially useful where space is limited yet a traceable reference is required for frequent checks.

Suited to metrology labs and routine quality assurance

Designed to meet industrial needs, the block suits calibration benches, maintenance workshops and production quality stations that require a reliable, serviceable standard. Conformity to DIN 861/1 makes it appropriate for standardised procedures and documentation chains, while the robust ceramic body reduces the risk of magnetic interference and surface deformation during normal handling. The combination of precision and durability supports smoother production flow and lowers the frequency of replacements.
