Mitutoyo 614170-531 Square Steel Gage Block 0.13 in Grade 0

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 614170-531 is a square steel gage block measuring 0.13 inches in overall length, manufactured to Grade 0 accuracy. Gage blocks are precision-ground reference standards used to calibrate measuring instruments, set comparators, and verify dimensional accuracy in metrology and quality control environments. Grade 0 indicates a high level of dimensional accuracy suitable for demanding inspection and calibration work. This block is supplied with a Certificate of Inspection, confirming that each unit has been individually verified against traceable standards. Machinists, metrology technicians, and quality control professionals in manufacturing and industrial settings are the primary users.

This gage block is suited for use in tool rooms, inspection departments, and calibration labs where precise dimensional reference is required. It serves as a reference master for setting dial indicators, height gages, and other precision instruments. The square geometry allows stable setup and consistent contact across measurement surfaces. Applications include dimensional inspection, machine setup, and instrument calibration in both production and laboratory environments. Compliance with ASME standards makes it appropriate for facilities operating under documented quality management systems.

Key Features

• Grade 0 accuracy per ASME standards for demanding calibration and inspection use
• Square steel construction provides stable contact surfaces and long service life
• 0.13-inch nominal size covers short-range dimensional reference needs
• Includes Certificate of Inspection for traceability documentation
• ASME-compliant for use in certified quality and metrology programs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision reference standard compatible with standard gage block accessories including holders, wringing films, and cases conforming to ASME B89.1.9 gage block system requirements.

Installation Notes

Gage blocks should be handled by metrology technicians or quality control personnel following established calibration procedures. Always clean contact surfaces with a lint-free cloth and appropriate solvent before use to prevent contamination and corrosion. Store blocks in their protective case when not in use and avoid contact with abrasive surfaces. Periodic recertification is recommended to maintain traceability under quality management programs such as ISO 17025 or similar standards.
