PH TOOL 5-Step Calibration Block (Inch) - 1018 Steel, with Fitted Case
Ensure unparalleled accuracy and reliability in your ultrasonic thickness measurements with this essential PH TOOL 5-Step Calibration Block. Precision-machined from durable 1018 Steel and supplied with a protective fitted case, this block is the go-to standard for calibrating and verifying the linearity of your ultrasonic thickness gauges in accordance with industry specifications.
Key Features & Benefits:
Precise Thickness References: This inch-version 5-step block features five accurately machined steps with nominal thicknesses of:
0.100" (100 mils)
0.200" (200 mils)
0.300" (300 mils)
0.400" (400 mils)
0.500" (500 mils) These precise steps allow for comprehensive calibration and verification across a practical range of thicknesses.
ASTM E797 Compliant: Manufactured in strict accordance with ASTM E797 (Standard Practice for Measuring Thickness by Manual Ultrasonic Pulse-Echo Contact Method), ensuring that your calibrations meet recognized international standards.
Optimal for Linearity Calibration: Crucial for confirming that your thickness gauge provides accurate readings across its entire measurement range, not just at a single point.
Durable 1018 Steel Construction: Made from high-quality 1018 Carbon Steel, a common and acoustically stable material, ensuring long-term integrity and consistent acoustic properties for reliable calibration.
Generous Step Faces: Each step features a 0.75" x 0.75" (approx. 19mm x 19mm) face, providing ample surface area for stable transducer placement and effective acoustic coupling.
Includes Fitted Protective Case: Comes with a custom-fitted wooden or durable hard-plastic storage case. This protects the precision-machined surfaces of the block from damage, dust, and corrosion, preserving its accuracy and extending its lifespan, while also making it easy to transport.
Traceability (Optional Certificate): While the block itself is manufactured to specifications, a Certificate of Accuracy (often optional from PH TOOL at additional cost) can provide full traceability to NIST and other national standards bodies, which is vital for many quality management systems.
Essential for NDT Professionals: An indispensable tool for ultrasonic technicians, inspectors, and quality control personnel in industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, oil & gas, and general maintenance.
Ideal For:
Calibrating ultrasonic thickness gauges.
Verifying linearity of thickness measurements.
Training and certification of UT technicians.
Ensuring compliance with industry standards for accurate thickness data.
