Value Collection 636-1000 Round Steel Gage Block 0.1 in Grade B

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 636-1000 is a round steel gage block used to verify, calibrate, and set precision measuring instruments in machine shops, toolrooms, and quality control environments. Built to Grade B accuracy tolerances, this block delivers reliable dimensional reference at 0.1 inches (0.10000 decimal inch). Steel construction provides durability and resistance to wear during repeated handling. Gage blocks of this type are used by machinists, metrology technicians, and quality assurance professionals who require traceable, consistent measurement references. Grade B is a working-grade standard suitable for general shop-floor calibration and inspection tasks.

This gage block is suited for use in machine shops, production facilities, and inspection departments where dimensional verification of tools, fixtures, and workpieces is performed. It functions as a reference standard for setting micrometers, dial indicators, and comparators. The 0.1-inch size is a common increment used in building gage block stacks for a wide range of measurement setups. It is appropriate for general-purpose metrology work where Grade B working tolerances meet the required accuracy class.

Key Features

• Grade B accuracy — meets working-grade tolerance standards for shop-floor metrology
• 0.10000 inch nominal size for precise dimensional reference
• Round form factor for easy handling and stacking
• Steel construction for durability and long service life
• Single-piece packaging — sold individually

Compatibility

Designed as a working-grade reference standard compatible with standard gage block sets and accessories used in general-purpose shop metrology applications.

Installation Notes

Gage blocks are handled and wrung by metrology technicians or qualified machinists. Clean contact surfaces thoroughly before wringing to prevent contamination and measurement error. Store blocks in a protective case away from moisture and temperature extremes to maintain calibration integrity. Follow applicable ASME B89.1.9 standards for gage block care, use, and calibration intervals.
