Ceramic gauge block 23.5 mm (Grade 1 DIN 861/1) — Metav IndustryLine

A Ceramic gauge block 23.5 mm designed as a compact, high-stability length standard for precision metrology and workshop reference measurements

• Ceramic material for thermal stability
• Grade 1 accuracy to DIN 861/1
• Nominal length 23.5 mm for traceable references

Stability and material advantages for reproducible results

The use of ceramic in a precision length standard delivers a combination of low thermal expansion and high wear resistance, which reduces length drift during routine handling and short inspection sequences. The block’s 23.5 mm nominal size is compact enough for easy insertion into gauge sets while providing a stable reference for comparative measurements. The Grade 1 classification in accordance with DIN 861/1 denotes suitability for standardised workshop and quality‑control tasks where repeatability and a recognised tolerance grade are required. This technical balance supports efficient calibration routines and fewer temperature‑related corrections.

Reliable measurement performance and workplace integration

As a compact end gauge, the component functions well as a reference in bench calibration, comparative checks and set‑up verification in production environments. Traceability to established standards is supported by the DIN grading and clear nominal dimensioning, making the block a practical choice for shop floors and inspection rooms that demand straightforward, reproducible checks. The ceramic construction also minimises surface damage during stacking and reduces the risk of rusting compared with steel, which contributes directly to longer service intervals and predictable measurement behaviour in daily use.

Handling, care and intended applications

Handling recommendations reflect the material’s strengths: keep the block clean, avoid hard knocks and store it in a dry, temperature‑stable environment to preserve precision. The compact format suits assembly‑line checks, comparative calibration benches and spot checks during incoming goods inspection, where a small, stable standard is preferable. When incorporated into a gauge set, the block serves as a reliable comparative element for verifying other length standards and for routine quality checks, supporting consistent process control in small‑ to medium‑sized workshops.

FAQ

What tolerance class does this gauge block meet?
The block is specified as Grade 1 according to DIN 861/1, which identifies it as suitable for standard workshop and inspection applications requiring recognised tolerance grading.

Why choose a ceramic block over a steel alternative?
Ceramic provides lower thermal expansion and higher resistance to corrosion and surface wear than many steels, so the ceramic block keeps length changes smaller with temperature fluctuations and lasts longer under normal handling.

Is the 23.5 mm size suitable for calibration sets?
Yes, the 23.5 mm nominal length is compact and convenient for inclusion in gauge sets and serves well as a comparative reference for routine checks and set‑up verification.

What is the product identifier for ordering and stock checks?
Reference the SKU M324.023.5 and the GTIN 4054469143354 when ordering or checking inventory for this ceramic gauge block.

How should the block be stored to preserve accuracy?
Store the block in a dry, stable‑temperature environment, avoid knocks and contamination, and use protective packaging during transport to maintain the reference surface quality.
