Curtis 5-Step UT Calibration Block | Carbon Steel
Precision Thickness & Linearity Verification Standard
This Curtis 5-Step Calibration Block is engineered for the precise calibration of ultrasonic thickness gauges and flaw detectors. Manufactured from high-quality 1018 Carbon Steel and machined to exacting tolerances, this block allows technicians to perform multi-point calibrations to ensure equipment linearity across a specific thickness range.
Step Dimensions
This block features five distinct thickness increments, providing a comprehensive calibration range for thin-to-medium wall materials:
| Step | Measurement (Imperial) | Measurement (Metric Equiv.) |
| Step 1 | 0.100" | 2.54 mm |
| Step 2 | 0.200" | 5.08 mm |
| Step 3 | 0.300" | 7.62 mm |
| Step 4 | 0.400" | 10.16 mm |
| Step 5 | 0.500" | 12.70 mm |
(Note: Your request mentioned .010", but the industry standard Curtis 5-Step block starts at .100". If you specifically require a .010" ultra-thin foil step, please let me know, as that is typically a custom shim.)
Key Features
