  2. Gauge block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_block

    A gauge block is a block of metal or ceramic with two opposing faces ground precisely flat and parallel, a precise distance apart. Standard grade blocks are made of a hardened steel alloy, while calibration grade blocks are often made of tungsten carbide (WC), chromium carbide (CrC) or ceramic ( SiO 2 -based) because they are harder and wear ...

  3. Wringing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wringing

    Wringing may refer to: Wringing (gauge blocks) , the temporary attachment of gauge blocks to each other Wringer, a device that extracts liquid by action of twisting or squeezing (see: mangle (machine) )

    The physics of wringing (to the extent that it is understood) is also discussed at gauge block > wringing. I added a cross-reference. — ¾-10 22:16, 23 October 2014 (UTC) Thanks. That is helpful. Of course, the difference here being that flats are usually cleaned very thoroughly and allowed to wring naturally. (Usually, but not always.)

    Gauge block, (also known as a gage block, Johansson gauge, slip gauge, or Jo block) a precision ground and lapped length measuring standard. It is used as a reference for the setting of measuring equipment used in machine shops , such as micrometers , sine bars , calipers , and dial indicators (when used in an inspection role ).

    A gauge block is a block of metal or ceramic with two opposing faces ground precisely flat and parallel, a precise distance apart. [31] The length of the path of light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second is embodied in an artefact standard such as a gauge block; this gauge block is then a primary standard which can be ...

    Block loved tire shredding, but when the wheel speed is that far removed from the car's speed, control becomes a challenge. So, Audi's engineers added this faux-shifting mechanism.
