This document provides work instructions for measuring gage blocks. It outlines that before measuring, gage blocks must be thoroughly cleaned and inspected for defects. When measuring, the blocks can be used individually or placed together through a wringing process where blocks are slid together with light pressure until friction increases and they bond. Proper wringing results in a negligible gap between blocks.

How Before measuring When measuring 1. Thoroughly clean the blocks ensuring they are free of lint, and dirt. 1. Blocks can be used as individual or places together, through a wringing process. 2. Visually inspect blocks for scratches, gouges or burrs. 2. Wringing is achieved by sliding blocks together with light pressure until friction 3. Do not touch blocks with bare hands. increase and blocks begin to "bond together". 3. With proper wringing, the gap between the two blocks will be negligible.
