FAQ

What is the temperature range for accurate use?

The blocks are calibrated at 20°C (68°F) and maintain accuracy within ±0.001 inches across a typical industrial temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). For extreme temperature environments, a temperature‑controlled calibration chamber is recommended.

Can the blocks be used with other gage block sets?

Yes, the Aspaton 123 Blocks set is compatible with standard gage block accessories and can be combined with other sets to expand the range of reference dimensions, provided the additional blocks meet the same tolerance specifications.

How often should the blocks be re‑calibrated?

For most industrial applications, a re‑calibration interval of 12 months is sufficient. However, if the blocks are subjected to heavy wear, impact, or exposure to harsh chemicals, more frequent verification may be necessary to ensure continued accuracy.

What is included in the package?

The package contains two parallel blocks each featuring 23 precisely machined holes (1, 2, and 3 inches), protective packaging to prevent damage during shipping, and a quick‑start guide outlining proper handling, storage, and basic calibration procedures.

Is there a warranty on the product?

Aspaton offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and material failures. The warranty includes replacement of any defective blocks and access to technical support for troubleshooting and calibration advice.
