Test Blocks

Oxford Precision™ Granite

Precision granite products are manufactured to the highest quality standards to provide an accurate surface from which final measurements can be taken. More dimensionally stable than steel or cast iron, with a low thermal expansion co-efficient. Does not burr, is corrosion free and easy to maintain.



Accurate bases which are used for mounting sensitive measuring, mechanical & electronic equipment. Manufactured to BS817. Supplied with calibration certificate.

Extended Jaw Vernier Calipers

For taking internal and external readings. Dual reading scale (metric and inch) with 14 bevelled vernier scale for reduced parallax reading error, fine adjustment assembly and knurled locking nut. Internal reading edges have rounded faces for accurate bore measurement. Manufactured from hardened stainless steel. Conform to DIN 862.

Optional Accessories

To fit the Oxford Precision Dissecting Stereo Metallurgical Microscope (OXD-318-4400K).
