Ceramic Gauge Block 4 mm, Grade 1 DIN 861/1 — Ceramic end gauge by Metav IndustryLine

A Ceramic Gauge Block 4 mm, Grade 1 DIN 861/1 designed as a compact reference standard for calibration labs and precision workshops

• Ceramic material for thermal stability
• Grade 1 accuracy per DIN 861/1
• Nominal length 4 mm for reference tasks
• Low weight 7 g for easy handling

Stable reference for everyday calibration tasks

The ceramic construction ensures minimal thermal expansion and excellent dimensional stability, which is crucial when establishing a reliable reference in a workshop or calibration environment. As a Grade 1 end gauge it provides an exact nominal length of 4 mm, offering repeatable benchmarks for comparative checks and instrument verification. The compact form factor reduces handling errors and supports fast, routine control measurements.

Durable, low-maintenance design that reduces rework

Made from high-grade ceramic, this reference tool resists wear and surface deformation better than many metallic counterparts, maintaining its measuring face integrity over prolonged use. The low mass and corrosion-free nature mean less cleaning and no risk of rust, so operational downtime for upkeep is reduced. Such robustness translates directly into fewer failed inspections and a steadier production flow.

Practical fit for calibration labs and quality departments

This end gauge serves well where short, highly accurate references are required: setting comparison standards, verifying micrometre and caliper readings, and as a stable element in inspection jigs. The lightweight construction aids precise placement without excessive clamping force, while the Grade 1 tolerance defined in DIN 861/1 ensures suitability for general metrology tasks in machine shops and production quality control. Metav’s experience and logistic presence in Emmerich support reliable delivery and product consistency for regular usage.
