I spoke to the client who says "gauge blocks" is the accepted term.
lexical (asker) May 12, 2013:
There's very little context other than that in the headers for the question. These terms are services offered by a metrology laboratory.

Yes, "bloco" is a very vague term but I think there's not much doubt about what these are: http://www.google.es/imgres?imgurl=http://www.ndt-inspection...
http://dicionario.co/bloco has over a dozen meanings for bloco
Context please :)
