Mitutoyo 614197-531 Square Steel Gage Block 0.7 in Grade 0

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 614197-531 is a square steel gage block measuring 0.7 inches, manufactured to Grade 0 accuracy and supplied with a Certificate of Inspection. Gage blocks are precision-ground reference standards used to calibrate measuring instruments, set up machining operations, and verify dimensional tolerances on the shop floor or in the metrology lab. Grade 0 represents a high level of dimensional accuracy and flatness, making this block suitable for calibration work and precision inspection tasks. Steel construction provides the durability and wear resistance required for repeated use in demanding industrial environments.

This gage block is used in metrology labs, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities where precise dimensional reference is required. Typical applications include calibrating micrometers, calipers, and height gauges, as well as setting up comparators and surface plates for inspection work. The 0.7-inch size fills a specific incremental need in a gage block set or serves as a standalone reference standard. It is handled and deployed by machinists, quality control technicians, and metrologists working to ASME standards.

Key Features

• Grade 0 accuracy per ASME standards for high-precision calibration and inspection work
• Square steel construction provides durability and resistance to wear during repeated use
• 0.7-inch nominal size suits incremental gage block stacking or standalone reference applications
• Includes Certificate of Inspection for traceability documentation requirements
• Conforms to ASME standards for gage block dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as a standalone precision reference standard compatible with ASME-compliant gage block sets and accessories used in standard metrology and shop inspection setups.

Installation Notes

Gage blocks should be handled by qualified metrology or quality control personnel following established calibration procedures. Store blocks in a clean, dry environment and allow them to thermally stabilize to room temperature before use to prevent measurement errors caused by thermal expansion. Clean mating surfaces thoroughly before wringing blocks together. Follow ASME B89.1.9 guidelines for proper handling, storage, and use of gage blocks.
