When you're working with cylindrical components, getting the right alignment isn't just important—it's critical. The VME VB-1 V block and clamp pair is designed for machinists who refuse to compromise on accuracy. Made from hardened and ground steel, these blocks provide the stability and precision you need for consistent, professional results every time.
What sets these V blocks apart is their meticulous construction. Every surface is ground square and parallel, ensuring your workpieces sit perfectly aligned. The 90-degree V grooves are positioned centrally and ground to be perfectly parallel with the ends, giving you maximum contact area and minimal slippage. These blocks work vertically only, which means they're optimized for the most common machining operations.
Crafted from hardened steel and precision-ground to exacting standards, these V blocks are built to last in even the most demanding workshop environments. The hardened surface resists wear and maintains its accuracy over time, making these blocks a worthy investment for any serious machinist. Each pair is matched to ensure consistent performance.
Whether you're drilling, milling, or grinding cylindrical parts, these V blocks provide the stability you need. The 1" capacity accommodates a wide range of workpieces, while the 1-5/8" width gives you plenty of surface area for secure clamping. Use them individually or as a matched pair for even greater versatility. These blocks are particularly useful when working with shafts, pins, rods, or any cylindrical component that needs precise positioning.
In machining, small imperfections can lead to big problems. That's why these V blocks are designed with precision as the top priority. The ground surfaces ensure your workpieces won't slip during cutting operations, while the square and parallel construction guarantees consistent positioning. Whether you're a professional machinist or a serious hobbyist, these blocks will help you achieve the accuracy you're looking for.
