2. Gauge block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_block

   Metric gauge block set, 112 pcs Another set with 8 pcs, 125 mm - 500 mm Trolley model. Gauge blocks (also known as gage blocks, Johansson gauges, slip gauges, or Jo blocks) are a system for producing precision lengths. The individual gauge block is a metal or ceramic block that has been precision ground and lapped to a specific thickness. Gauge ...

3. Carl Edvard Johansson - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Edvard_Johansson

   When he started manufacturing gauge blocks in inch sizes in 1912, Johansson's compromise was to manufacture gauge blocks with a nominal size of 25.4 mm (with a reference temperature of 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit), accurate to within a few parts per million of both official definitions.

4. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

   The accuracy of micrometers is checked by using them to measure gauge blocks, [17] rods, or similar standards whose lengths are precisely and accurately known. If the gauge block is known to be 0.75000 ± 0.00005 inch ("seven-fifty plus or minus fifty millionths", that is, "seven hundred fifty thou plus or minus half a tenth"), then the ...

5. Indicator (distance amplifying instrument) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_(distance...

   Ideal test indicator pushed. Prior to modern geared dial mechanisms, test indicators using a single lever or systems of levers were common. The range and precision of these devices were generally inferior to modern dial type units, with a range of 10/1000 inch to 30/1000 inch, and precision of 1/1000 inch being typical.

6. Calipers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

   Retainer: used to block movable part to allow the easy transferring of a measurement. The calipers in the diagram show a primary reading on the metric scale of about 2.475 cm (2.4 cm read from the main scale plus about 0.075 cm from the vernier scale).

7. Go/no-go gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go/no-go_gauge

   Hardened and ground plug gauge Replaceable thread and plug gauges. These gauges are referred to as plug gauges; they are used in the manner of a plug.They are generally assembled from standard parts, where the gauge portion is interchangeable with other gauge pieces (obtained from a set of pin type gauge blocks) and a body that uses the collet principle to hold the gauges firmly.
