Product Description

Vee blocks (also known as clamping blocks, wedge blocks, and vee-jaws) are a type of tool used to secure an object in place while it is being machined, measured, or otherwise manipulated. They consist of two metal plates, one with a V-shaped groove cut into its top and the other with a matching V-shape cut into its bottom. The two plates are then connected by a hinge, allowing them to be opened and closed around the object. When used in pairs, vee blocks can securely hold cylindrical objects of any diameter.

Exceptional Alignment and Durability

Vee Blocks are precision-engineered with high accuracy alignment and stabilized construction. They are hardened to HRC 55-60, offering robust resistance to rust, wear, and deformation over time. Their precision-ground and lapped surfaces ensure reliability for quality-conscious inspection and machining operations.

Designed for Versatile Workholding Applications

These blocks are supplied in matched pairs to hold cylindrical workpieces securely in tool rooms, inspection cells, or during light machining. Their metallic grey finish and smooth ground surface provide a professional appearance, while the silent operation and rust-resistant properties enhance their suitability across diverse industrial settings.

FAQs of Vee Blocks:

Q: How are Vee Blocks with Pairing typically used in tool rooms and inspection environments?

A: Vee Blocks are primarily used to hold cylindrical workpieces securely during inspection, marking, or light machining tasks. Their high precision and stable alignment make them valuable for ensuring accurate measurements and consistent results in tool room and quality control settings.

Q: What features make these Vee Blocks resistant to rust and wear?

A: These Vee Blocks are made from hardened steel and have a hardness rating of HRC 55-60. Additionally, the precision lapping and smooth ground surface treatment further enhance their resistance to rust and wear, prolonging their service life in demanding environments.

Q: When should I choose non-magnetic Vee Blocks for my application?

A: Non-magnetic Vee Blocks are especially beneficial when working with ferromagnetic materials or during sensitive measurement tasks where magnetic interference could jeopardize accuracy or disrupt electronic instruments. Their non-magnetic design ensures stable, interference-free performance.

Q: Where can these Vee Blocks be used besides inspection?

A: Apart from inspection, these Vee Blocks can be utilized in tool rooms, manufacturing setups, workshops, and laboratories for holding round or cylindrical components during light machining, marking, assembly, or testing procedures.

Q: What is the process for securing a workpiece using these Vee Blocks?

A: To secure a workpiece, place the cylindrical object in the V-groove of the block and use the included threaded clamps to hold it firmly in position. The matched pair allows for precise alignment and minimizes movement, supporting accurate machining or inspection.

Q: What benefits do precision ground surfaces provide in Vee Blocks?

A: Precision ground surfaces enhance the stability and accuracy of the workpiece holding, reducing the risk of slippage and facilitating reliable measurements or machining. They also reduce wear and maintain the blocks dimensional accuracy over extended use.
