Value Collection 285-2405 Magnetic V-block 1-9/32 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 285-2405 is a magnetic V-block used to hold and locate cylindrical workpieces during layout, inspection, and machining operations. It features a 90-degree V angle and accepts round stock up to 1-9/32 inches in diameter. The built-in magnetic base allows the block to secure to ferrous surface plates and machine tables without additional clamping hardware. Overall length is 2-3/4 inches, overall width is approximately 2.36 inches, and overall height is approximately 2.87 inches. Machinists, toolmakers, and quality control technicians are the primary users of this type of tooling block.

This V-block is suited for use on surface plates, milling machine tables, drill press tables, and inspection benches in machine shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing facilities. It is sold as an individual unit and is appropriate for both production environments and general-purpose layout work where consistent, repeatable part positioning of cylindrical stock is required.

Key Features

• 90-degree V angle for stable, repeatable cylindrical workpiece location
• Maximum V capacity of 1-9/32 inches (32.54 mm) accommodates a wide range of round stock sizes
• Magnetic base secures to ferrous surface plates and machine tables without separate clamps
• Overall length of 2-3/4 inches provides a compact footprint for close-quarters setups
• Sold as an individual unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an individual magnetic V-block for use on standard ferrous surface plates and machine tables in general machining, inspection, and layout applications.

Installation Notes

Placement on a clean, flat, ferrous surface is required for the magnetic base to seat and hold properly. Verify the mating surface is free of chips, burrs, and coolant before positioning the block. No fasteners or special tools are needed for typical setup, but always confirm the workpiece is fully seated in the V before applying cutting or measurement forces. Demagnetize the block periodically if magnetic buildup causes interference with sensitive inspection instruments.
