Conveniently pocket sized, this L-shaped gauge block simplifies machine set-up or layout by providing a direct reference for five common metric measurements: 2mm, 4mm, 8mm, 16mm and 32mm.
Changing the block orientation makes it simple to position between a fence and a bit or a blade, allowing rapid and accurate adjustment using any of the sections. The precision aluminum extrusion is also accurate enough to use with our metric set-up blocks.
The total length of the metric block also simplifies 32mm spacing, especially when building European cabinetry. A hole on one side lets you attach it to a key chain, and an etched rule with graduations in millimetres allows measurements up to 32mm. Made in Canada.

Yes, it is machined from precision aluminum extrusion accurate enough to use alongside metric set-up blocks for fine machine adjustments.
Its total length matches the 32mm spacing system common in European cabinetry, so you can quickly lay out shelf-pin holes without recalculating spacing.
Yes, a hole in one corner lets you thread it onto a key chain, so it's within reach whenever you need a quick reference.
It's a precision aluminum extrusion, which keeps the block lightweight while holding its measurements accurately over time.
