Mitutoyo Steel Gauge Block offers you the following benefits: 

• Outstanding dimensional stability: Mitutoyo steel gauge blocks are made exclusively from artificially aged material. 
• High gauge reliability: The gauge blocks can be used as a standard for a long time due to their high dimensional stability. 
• The maximum permitted length changes to gauge blocks over a year are defined in EN ISO 3650. Mitutoyo high-quality gauge blocks easily meet these and all other requirements.
• Steel gauge blocks are excellent for use as a standard because of the low measurement uncertainty that can be achieved when using them. 
• Mitutoyo steel gauge blocks have top-quality surfaces, guaranteeing high wringing force. 

Mitutoyo Ceramic Gauge Block offers you the following benefits: 

• Due to the ceramic material, these gauge blocks are highly wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant.
• CERA blocks feature ten times the abrasion resistance of steel gauge blocks and three times that of hard metal blocks.
• Steel and ceramic have similar expansion coefficients which reduce measurement errors that occur due to temperature change.
• Non-magnetic: Powders (such as iron grit) will not adhere to surfaces
• Clearly visible marking: Black characters on a snow-white surface
• More or less free from dimensional change over time
• Can adhere to steel gauge blocks
• Free from burrs caused by scratches
