Prism Pairs with Clamping Strap M318.264 — Metav IndustryLine, special steel, DIN 876/0, 0.008 mm accuracy The Prism Pairs with Clamping Strap M318.264 deliver secure, repeatable support for cylindrical components in inspection, assembly and light machining setups, with an emphasis on stable positioning and straightforward clamping. Special steel construction, DIN 876/0 90° centre cut for precise alignment Suitable for shafts Ø5–45 mm with clamping strap Stable support for fragile and heavy shafts The prism set is built from special steel, providing a firm contact surface that minimises elastic deformation during clamping and measurement. With a compact footprint of 125 x 90 x 70 mm and a substantial mass of 10.3 kg, the unit resists movement under load and keeps the workpiece centred. The included clamping strap secures the component without excessive force, reducing slippage and enabling consistent results across repeated cycles — a practical advantage for production sampling and bench inspection. Measured repeatability for quality control Designed to meet DIN 876/0 tolerances, the prisms deliver an accuracy of 0.008 mm, which supports tight alignment and repeatable fixturing in quality assurance processes. This level of accuracy makes the set suitable for precision inspection tasks where concentricity and axial runout matter. The nominal accuracy value indicates how closely measurements or alignments can be reproduced when the same setup is recreated, helping to reduce scrap and rework in downstream operations. Faster setup and reliable alignment on the shop floor The 90° centre cut simplifies the initial placement of round parts and, together with the clamping strap, shortens setup time compared with bespoke fixtures. The profile and angle of the bearing surfaces guide shafts into a defined datum, so adjustments are reduced and throughput increases. For workshops handling batches of shafts or cylindrical assemblies, this translates into measurable gains in productivity while maintaining the geometric conditions required for accurate machining or inspection. Versatile compatibility with common inspection tooling Prepared for shafts ranging from Ø5–45 mm, the prism pair integrates well with existing measurement benches and manual inspection rigs. Its form factor and datum geometry make it easy to combine with dial indicators, bore gauges and other metrology equipment used for concentricity checks, runout measurement and centreline verification. The robust construction also makes the unit suitable for light clamping in assembly or balancing operations where a reproducible support is essential. Durable design and low-maintenance operation Finished contact faces on the prisms ensure smooth seating and repeatable contact points; the special steel composition balances wear resistance with machinability for occasional reconditioning if required. Routine upkeep is limited to keeping the surfaces clean and free of abrasive debris. The combination of a solid build and simple mechanical clamping yields long service life and predictable performance in demanding workshop environments.

The device's accuracy ±0.005 mm supports tasks where fine positional control matters and contributes to consistent results during machining, inspection or assembly operations. This makes the clamping device suitable as a dependable tool on the bench or in light production settings. Prisms and geometry that aid centred workholding Horizontally and vertically ground prisms are integrated into the jaws, enabling reliable support of round bars and shafts while maintaining correct alignment. The prismatic faces reduce the need for additional fixtures when measuring or machining cylindrical items, simplifying setup and saving time. The vice's squareness 0.01 mm helps preserve perpendicular reference for downstream processes, and the compact body lets operators position parts with ease while maintaining the required tolerance for accurate repeatability. Compact construction for workshop flexibility With a length of 155 mm, a span of 60 mm and a weight of 2.1 kg, the vice balances reach and manoeuvrability: long enough for common small assemblies, yet light enough for repositioning across the bench. A jaw height of 25 mm provides sufficient contact area for stable clamping without sacrificing visibility of the workpiece. The overall design reduces handling effort and supports efficient workflow, whether used for light machining, inspection or as a permanent fixture on a measuring station.

Increase measurement reliability with precision vices and prisms
Precision vices and prisms (also referred to as metrology vices, measuring vices, v‑blocks and prism pairs) provide the mechanical foundation for repeatable, deformation‑free workpiece positioning in quality control and shopfloor metrology. Designed for use on granite plates, optical measuring stations or 3D coordinate measuring machines, these tools ensure that even the most sensitive measuring instruments deliver valid results by preventing slippage, distortion or stress in the workpiece.
How they work and where they are essential
Precision vices clamp components without inducing stress, while prism pairs centre and support cylindrical and rotationally symmetric parts such as shafts and pins. Machined from hardened, stainless gauge steel and finished with finely lapped faces, measuring vices feature construction that prevents the movable jaw from lifting; prism pairs are supplied as matched units to DIN 874, guaranteeing identical height and true centre‑line seating. Variants with integrated clamping straps or switchable magnetic prisms add flexibility for run‑out, position and scribing checks.
Tangible benefits that speed up production and reduce uncertainty
- Micrometre‑level accuracy: engineered surfaces and matched prism pairs eliminate systematic height errors.
- Stable, deformation‑free clamping: prevents measurement scatter caused by part movement or stress.
- Reduced setup and repeat times: repeatable positioning lowers effective cycle time during series inspections.
- Environmental robustness: choice of low‑distortion materials and lap‑finished surfaces maintains geometry across temperature variations.
- Versatile application: suitable for coordinate measuring machines, optical benches and manual inspection on granite plates.

FAQ
How do precision vices and prisms improve measurement accuracy?
Precision vices and prisms provide a mechanically stable reference for the workpiece; by eliminating movement and deformation they ensure that the measured geometry reflects the part, not fixturing errors.
Are prism pairs matched to any standard?
Prism pairs are supplied as pairwise ground units in accordance with DIN 874, which guarantees identical heights and reliable centring for cylindrical parts.
What materials and surface finish are used for measuring vices?
Measuring vices are typically made from hardened, stainless gauge steel with all faces ground square and parallel and with finely lapped contact surfaces to avoid marking and to secure dimensional stability.
Can these vices and prisms be used on coordinate measuring machines and optical benches?
Yes. The design and materials of precision vices and prisms make them suitable for use on granite plates, optical measuring stations and 3D coordinate measuring machines, where repeatability and low measurement uncertainty are required.
