Mechanical and measurement tool calibration

Torque tools, gauges, micrometers, calipers, scales and crimp tools.

Torque and dimensional tools calibrated for engineering, manufacturing and maintenance teams.

All calibration is traceable to national standards and carried out under our ISO 9001 quality management system.

Why mechanical and measurement tools need calibrating

Torque wrenches, micrometers, calipers and gauges are used to make sure parts are assembled and made correctly. An under-reading torque wrench can leave a joint loose, and an over-reading one can strip threads or damage components. Crimp tools that are out of tolerance can produce poor electrical connections that fail later.

How often should a torque wrench be calibrated?

The torque tool standard BS EN ISO 6789 recommends recalibrating a torque wrench every 12 months or every 5,000 cycles, whichever comes first, or sooner if it has been overloaded or dropped. Micrometers, calipers, gauges and scales are usually calibrated annually, or more often if your quality system requires it.

What you get back

  • A calibration certificate with the make, model and serial number
  • Measured values at test points compared with reference values
  • A statement of traceability to national standards
  • The calibration date and recommended due date

All work is carried out under our ISO 9001 quality management system. UKAS-accredited calibration is available on request through our UKAS-accredited partner laboratory.

Common questions

Do you calibrate torque screwdrivers as well as wrenches?

Yes, along with torque wrenches up to and over 1 metre and torque calibrators.

Can you calibrate a full set of measuring tools?

Yes. Send micrometers, calipers, gauges and scales together and they will come back with individual certificates.

Where can I drop tools off?

At any Calibration Point partner branch. We collect from there and usually return within 3 to 5 working days.
