Ceramic gauge block M324.001.36 — 1.36 mm, Grade 1 (DIN 861/1)

The Ceramic gauge block M324.001.36 provides a thermally stable 1.36 mm reference for high-precision length calibration and inspection tasks in metrology laboratories and quality control.

• Grade 1 accuracy to DIN 861/1
• Stable ceramic construction
• Nominal size 1.36 mm for fine calibration
• Lightweight 0.002 kg for easy handling

Exceptional dimensional stability for reference standards

The combination of Grade 1 conformity (DIN 861/1) and a ceramic base material yields a reference block with very low thermal expansion and excellent wear resistance, which reduces drift during repeated use. This stability directly lowers measurement uncertainty when used as a reference in comparators, length gauges or stack assemblies. The compact 1.36 mm nominal size makes this block especially suitable for fine adjustments and for establishing short reference steps in calibration sets, where minimal contact deformation and consistent surface integrity are required.

Material benefits that improve measurement reliability

A ceramic measuring surface offers distinct advantages over steel in environments where temperature fluctuations or corrosion risk are factors: reduced sensitivity to temperature changes, no rusting, and high surface hardness that preserves the reference face profile. These properties support reproducible wringing and long service life, helping laboratories and inspection stations maintain stable reference standards with fewer replacements. The block’s low mass and rigid geometry contribute to straightforward handling during set-up and stacking, while the hard-wearing surface sustains accurate mating with other gauge blocks.

Practical use and handling in the calibration workflow

Integration into a calibration workflow is straightforward: the block functions as a precise length reference for setting measuring instruments, checking gauges or building gauge stacks. Careful handling and clean-room‑style storage will preserve the surface quality; use lint-free cloths and appropriate storage trays to avoid contamination. When combined with complementary reference blocks, this ceramic element supports stepwise verification across the small-range spectrum. The M324.001.36 is suited to calibration laboratories and precision workshops seeking compact, durable references for repeatable short-range measurements.
