Value Collection 636-1040 Round Gage Block 0.104 in Grade B

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 636-1040 is a round steel gage block measuring 0.104 inches, manufactured to Grade B accuracy. Gage blocks are precision-ground reference standards used to verify, calibrate, and set measuring instruments to a known dimension. This block is constructed from steel and provides a reliable, traceable dimensional reference for inspection and quality control work. Grade B accuracy suits general shop-floor and toolroom applications where high-precision laboratory standards are not required. Machinists, toolmakers, and quality control technicians are the primary users.

This gage block is suited for use in machine shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing environments where dimensional verification is part of routine workflow. It is used to calibrate micrometers, set comparators, verify gauge readings, and establish reference dimensions during part inspection. The 0.104-inch size makes it a useful individual block for specific dimensional setups or as a supplement to an existing gage block set.

Key Features

• Grade B accuracy for reliable shop-floor and toolroom dimensional reference
• Steel construction provides durability and resistance to wear during repeated use
• Round form factor for ease of handling and stacking in wringing applications
• 0.104-inch nominal size for precise dimensional setups
• Individual block allows targeted replacement or supplementation of existing sets

Compatibility

Designed as a standard individual round steel gage block for use in toolroom and shop-floor dimensional reference applications. Compatible with conventional gage block accessories and holders designed for round-style blocks.

Installation Notes

Gage blocks are typically handled and set up by machinists, toolmakers, or quality control technicians. Clean all contact surfaces thoroughly before wringing blocks together to prevent damage and ensure accurate readings. Store blocks in a protective case and allow thermal stabilization before use in precision measurement applications. Do not drop or strike gage blocks against hard surfaces, as this can damage the lapped faces and compromise accuracy.
