Abstract
Two publications on interferometric gauge block measurements claiming extraordinarily low uncertainties gave rise to some critical considerations. For such interferometric measurements, wringing of the gauge block to a platen is a basic element in the measurement process. Among the effects limiting the attainable uncertainty level, the elastic deformation of the gauge block by the wringing process has to be included in the evaluation model and to be appropriately taken into account in the uncertainty budget.
