    Question

    Which of the following metal is used in a ‘B’ grade V-block?

    A.

    Mild steel

    B.

    Cast steel

    C.

    Cast iron

    D.

    High-speed steel

    Correct option is C


    ‘B’ grade V-blocks are typically made from cast iron due to its good wear resistance, rigidity, and dimensional stability. Cast iron is an ideal material for V-blocks because it can absorb vibrations and does not easily deform under load. Grade B V-blocks are used for general workshop purposes, where precision requirements are less stringent than in grade A blocks.
    V-Block Purpose:
    · Used to hold cylindrical workpieces securely during marking, drilling, or inspection.
    · Provides stability and accurate alignment.
    Grade Classification:
    · Grade A: Made from hardened and precision-ground materials for inspection purposes.
    · Grade B: Made from materials like cast iron, used for general workholding.
