V-3V Prism Block — fine-grained cast iron, 0.05 mm accuracy (Vertex)

The V-3V Prism Block is a precision V-block designed to locate and support cylindrical workpieces during inspection and light machining tasks, offering stable seating and consistent reference points.

Fine-grained cast iron construction
High positional accuracy 0.05 mm
Compact dimensions 35 x 76 x 61 mm
Robust 1.5 kg mass for vibration damping

Stable base material for consistent measurement results

Made from fine-grained cast iron, the prism body provides a dense, vibration-damping platform that keeps the workpiece steady during manual inspection and measuring processes. The high material mass of 1.5 kg reduces chatter and improves contact stability, which directly benefits repeatability. The stated accuracy 0.05 mm indicates the manufacturing tolerance of the prism faces; in practice this precision helps to maintain concentricity and alignment when using a micrometer, dial gauge or a precision caliper for comparative checks.

Accurate locating that speeds up setup and inspection

The V-shaped seat positions round parts securely, reducing the need for clamps in many measurement applications. This reliable locating reduces setup time and lowers cycle variation, supporting higher throughput in quality-control routines. The compact footprint (35 x 76 x 61 mm) makes the unit easy to integrate on inspection plates or inside machine fixtures, while the prism geometry supplies defined contact lines for quick reference measurements and straightforward visual alignment.

Robust design for long service life and workshop integration

A simple, robust design means fewer wear points and less maintenance over time; the prism block’s material choice and mass combine to withstand everyday workshop handling. The durable construction from Vertex ensures component longevity while preserving dimensional integrity. Traceability is supported by the visible SKU and GTIN markings, enabling organised inventory and clear identification in procurement and inspection logs.

FAQ

What is the primary use of this prism block?
The V-3V prism block is used to locate and support cylindrical components during inspection and light machining operations, providing defined contact lines for reference measurements.

What precision can be expected from the V-3V?
The V-3V from Vertex is manufactured to an accuracy of 0.05 mm, which ensures repeatable seating and alignment for comparative measuring tasks.

Is the prism block suitable for use on an inspection plate?
Yes, the compact dimensions (35 x 76 x 61 mm) and stable fine-grained cast iron construction make the V-3V suitable for mounting or use directly on inspection plates and fixtures.

How does the mass of the unit affect performance?
The 1.5 kg mass of the prism block increases vibration damping and improves stability during measurement, which enhances repeatability and reduces measurement scatter.

Can the V-3V be used with a precision caliper or micrometer?
The V-3V is compatible with handheld and bench measuring tools such as a precision caliper or micrometer for comparative checks and simple dimensional controls.
