Q1: What are the different grades of gauge blocks?
A1: Gauge blocks come in different grades based on their precision and intended use. The main grades include:

• K Grade (Calibration Grade) – Highest accuracy, used in national metrology labs for primary calibration.
• Grade 00 – High precision, used in calibration labs and inspection rooms.
• Grade 0 – Precision measurement for tool rooms and high-accuracy machining.
• Grade 1 – General industrial inspection and high-precision manufacturing.
• Grade 2 – Standard for workshops and production environments.
• Workshop Grade – Lower precision, used for routine machine setup.

Q2: How to select the right gauge block set?    
A2: Selecting the right gauge block set depends on accuracy requirements, material, grade, and measurement system. Consider the following:

• Accuracy & Grade – Choose Grade K or 00 for laboratory calibration, Grade 0 for high-precision machining, and Grade 1 or 2 for general industrial use.
• Material – Steel is durable, ceramic resists corrosion, and tungsten carbide offers extreme wear resistance.
• Measurement System – Select metric (mm) or imperial (inch) based on your industry standards.
• Number of Blocks – A larger set (81 or 103 pieces) provides more versatility, while smaller sets (36 or 46 pieces) suit basic applications.

Gauge blocks help maintain precision and consistency in machine alignment and calibration.

Q3: What is the difference between metric and imperial gauge block sets?
A3: The difference between metric and imperial gauge block sets lies in their unit of measurement and step increments. Metric gauge blocks use millimeters (mm) as the standard and typically follow increments such as 1.001 mm, 1.002 mm, etc. Imperial gauge blocks use inches, often following increments like 0.1001 inches, 0.1002 inches, and so on. While both sets serve the same purpose—precise length measurement and calibration—their use depends on the measurement system required for specific tools, industries, or regions.

Tips: How to clean ceramic gauge blocks? 

• Use a lint-free cloth or microfiber wipe to remove dust and debris.
• Apply alcohol or a mild solvent (like isopropyl alcohol) to gently clean the surface.
• Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the ceramic.
• Let them air dry or wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Do not oil ceramic blocks.
