A square gage block can retain stable orientation both longitudinally and laterally.
A wide range of application measurements can be made, including cutting tool positioning, angle measurement with a sine bar, taper measurement with a roller, and inspection of depth micrometers.
All Mitutoyo gage blocks meet or exceed all known specifications.
The flatness, parallelism and surface finish necessary to achieve the required accuracies are the same as or better than government requirements.
A Certificate of Accuracy, traceable to the NIST, is furnished with each gage block set and individual block.
