    Large Capacity Mangetic V-Block Set

    Hi all. I am looking for a single or matched set of magnetic V-Blocks that can hold 8" diameter stock for our CMM. Please reply if you can or if you know of anyone who makes this type of thing.

    Thanks much and I hope you all have a great day.

    Brian.

    you are talking big bucks if you want it up to par for CMM use. I would be looking at places specializing in metrology.

    Good Luck

    Brian, Just curious, why magnetic? an 8" diameter pc. should be heavy enough to immobolize itself for CMM work. Even a pair of blocks would be heavy enough, you'd think.

    How about "B" (ball) blocks?

    You might try Flexbar or Herman Scmidt. If Taft-Pierce is still in business, they may make them. Suburban Tool?

    They are out there but not cheap.
