The manufacturing of each piece of block gauge will directly affect the stability of size. Therefore, the material should be carefully considered when manufacturing or purchasing the block gauge. Here are some important characteristics for reference:
(1) The accuracy requirements of its standard size and surface accuracy shall be above the specification standard.
(2) Do not affect the standard size due to environmental changes.
(3) It shall be wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant.
(4) It needs to be practical, such as shape, size, size, thickness, etc.
There are several kinds of materials for manufacturing block gauge: chromium carbide, tungsten carbide, alloy steel, stainless steel, quartzite, etc. However, most of the manufacturers of block gauge are mainly made of alloy steel and tool steel, and their advantages are summarized as follows:
(1) After hardening, the deformation has wear resistance and stability.
(2) Low price and easy machining.
