UNSPSC 41111626: Gauge block

A precision ground and lapped measuring standard. It is used as a reference for the setting or calibration of measuring equipment.

UNSPSC 41111626 Gauge block is a Commodity code covering precision measurement standards — physical blocks of hardened steel or ceramic used as reference artifacts to verify and calibrate measuring instruments in manufacturing, quality control, and metrology laboratories. State and local governments purchase gauge blocks primarily through state transportation departments, university research facilities, and school district vocational and advanced manufacturing programs. These blocks are typically specified as part of broader laboratory equipment and calibration-standards procurements rather than as standalone line items, and they appear most frequently in requests for quality assurance tooling and precision measurement capability upgrades at public fabrication shops and testing labs.

The recent opportunities block contains no posted state or local solicitations specifically tagged to this Commodity code. Without named recent opportunities, geographic concentration and issuing-body activity under 41111626 cannot be reliably characterized from the available source material.
