Hey Cody machinist here. I work with both ceramic and steel gauge blocks almost daily. They both wring together (S-C/S-S/C-C) although they do wring when the surface is perfectly clean, I found its much easier if you clean them and then put a light fingerprint on one of the surfaces before wringing. if you push pretty hard while doing that, they will hold together with extreme force. If you have any questions about them feel free to ask.

@-danR

A fingerprint has a complex chemical signature and would probably introduce a confounding factor not related to the matter at hand. At the least, the twisting in that case might spread out the substance into sort of mating film that would enable the suction effect.

Well, I have a cheap set that I use for building spacer blocks - to use on the other side of the vise, in order to keep the jaws parallel. That is a crude use indeed, but you can make a spacer the exact size of whatever it is you want to hold, and the grip is better when the jaws are parallel. But one basic use of gauge blocks is to set a dial gauge at zero on a surface plate setup. Then you can measure some work to see how close to the zero it is. Like if the work is about 1.25" and you have an inch block + a .25 inch block, rung together, you can count on it being exactly 1.25". (It's actually bigger but only by nanometers!)

Perhaps because the first type of friction is caused by the "hilly" surface bumping into each others and the smoother it gets you reduce the frequency of these bumps which lower the friction until you get to a near flat surface and then the friction increase because more of the surface area is in contact to the other. It might be possible that it partially weld together, but that's just because the metal isn't completely exposed, so you partially cold weld the piece together and every single time you take them away, you break the weld damaging the surface but only to a few atoms thick, so it's still not visible unless you were to do it thousand and thousands of time

It’s not bonding, it’s van der waal forces. Van der waal force is the momentary polarization of the electron “cloud” when one atom comes in very close proximity to another. It’s a weak attraction force. That’s what you get more VDW force when the sides are near perfect flatness ie.more atoms from the 2 sides are in close enough proximity to allow for VDW force to act on them. This is lower division chemistry in college.

What I was told when I was training to be an engineer, was when the gauge blocks touch, the surface is so smooth and level that the molecules cold weld together, but if they are left together for too long they actually weld to each other and in some cases need replacing

It's funny watching AvE handle these like they'd explode if he breathed on them, then there's you dropping them on each other.

Any moisture directly on the surface is really bad as it forms spongy protrusion of rust and pitting when the it cleaned up, both of which are bad for accuracy. Luckily the rust only formed on the non-essential surfaces, so a little 1200 grit sandpaper didn't do much harm.

Neut If the presence of air was the only thing impeding their bond, as that part of the test was meant to determine, then the upper blocks weight pushing them together would've been enough to form the bond.

Wringing is not the van der Waals force / london dispersion force. Between two flat planes with 10nm separation in a vacuum, the van der Waals-induced pressure is around .05 atmosphere. This is two or three orders of magnitude too low. Its an additional order of magnitude lower under atmosphere. The longest atomic bond of any kind is less than .4 nm, and those bonds tend to drop off by the 4th power or greater. Even if tiny peaks of the blocks are touching, it won't be enough to create an attraction. Gecko feet are a weaker attraction than gauge blocks and we know Gecko feet uses the van der Waals force. The separation would have to be below 1 nm across a large amount of the blocks to make a bond, and the roughness of gauge blocks only have tiny spots of contact. (Additionally, the force is repulsive before its attractive.) I have no clue, but the Casimir force works at the scale of block roughness. Doesn’t explain why the attraction is not hugely stronger for metals, though.

@mildsauce5019

I might suggest an all together simpler explanation: The small 5-10 lb force being applied when wringing is enough for local surface deformation (and temporary vacuum) of the peaks when we consider **just** how small the feature sizes are. So just a small amount of deformation at these scales -- then applied across the entire surface of the gageblock -- is enough to get the thing to stick. An experiment to run: Quantify the forces applied between blocks when wrung. See if there is a relationship between the sticking force (for example when being put into tension + pulled apart "normal" to the joint) and the force applied during wringing. GRANTED: the force application required for tighter "sticking" between the plates will be exponential -- just bc feature sizes are so normal across these faces. If were deforming the small ridges, with 5lbs ... for the user to begin to deform the less-extreme peaks (and therefor hugely more common) will take QUITE a bit more force. Simply by a function of the peak count -- far more peaks to deform. So your experimental inputs will be something like 1lb 5lbs 50lbs 500lbs 5000lbs If you have a change in the sticking force, I'd wager then the wringing phenomenon is caused by localized vacuum.

Watching this on a large TV, I mistook the orientation of the chamber. When the first suction cup fell toward the bottom of the screen, I became slightly disoriented for a very short period of time.

Then, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the electric field; when rubbing you are actually moving electrons along the surface, the same way you rub electrons of a PVC pipe with a microfibre rag. So you essentially generate a magnetic field going through that surface. So perhaps you can get them stuck or unstuck with electricity or magnetism, or getting it to get stuck better.

As almost "perfectly flat" as they are, friction may be causing something other than a "locking" of atoms. That much surface making contact and sliding could also be doing some exchange of charge and creating a localized magnetic force perhaps. See if some magnetic viewing film can identify any fields they might be creating?

could oxygen be forming an oxide layer on the metal and the twisting motion you speak of breaks the layer along two pieces of "clean" metal touch and cold weld but only a very little of it can weld so it's a weak weld?

@DarrenPoulson

This is what I thought. I'm sure I've heard of it being an issue in space where freshly bared metal doesn't create a protective oxide layer, and makes it possible for two pieces of metal to bond. Here on earth (or in an atmosphere) the metal becomes readily oxidised, possibly nearly instantly. At least enough to stop cold welding. However, as you rub the two pieces together, it grinds away that very thin oxide layer. Only way to test is to machine the metal in a vacuum. Be interesting to see how precise it needs to be.

I tried using two pieces of pretty flat glass. It is interesting because they do stick along the axis of their normals but they are free to slide in the other two axises. In the case of the glass it does feel like it would have to do with vacuum. To test this in a chamber I think you need guides to prevent the lifted glass sheet not to slide in case it is not perfectly aligned with gravity. Unfortunately my own vacuum chamber broke before I even completed it so can't test it for the moment ^^ Keep up the good work Cody!

Julian Petit Google says Scott Manley is a software developer and returned a mix of KSP/popular science vids… not exactly a reputable source. Anyway, turns out he was referring to the exact dubious claim I was talking about in the previous comment. Basically, in October last year a couple dudes at Harvard said they made metallic hydrogen, but their results have so far not been replicated and it is widely speculated that what they were actually seeing/testing was the aluminum with which they coated the diamond anvil cell used in the experiment. They themselves have refused to redo the experiment, allegedly for fear of destroying the sample. So as far as I'm concerned, metallic hydrogen has not been synthesized yet.

Actually hellterminator is right. So far no successful replication has been done AND metallic hydrogen is the type of thing that has been misreported as obtained many times already. So some additional skepticism is necessary, because there is really not enough evidence just yet. I've seen that happen with this topic already in my short lifetime.

That laser is like your ultimate multitool with that vacuum chamber. You do some many thing with it that I wouldn't even think would be possible without it in such a tiny enclosed space.

We did the same in middle school with hexagon shaped plastic pens. We've put them in a circle with one in the middle which was sticking out at the bottom and hit it on the table. When releasing sometimes a few were stuck together. The video immediately reminded me of this even tho I've never done and thought about it in 8 years. Probably the same kind of physic working there.

I've used Johansson blocks for metrology and tool room practice for the last 15 years or so. I don't know what causes the wringing effect that allows them to stick together, but I doubt it is getting the metal surfaces close enough together to share electrons or interlock atoms. Both would cause "cold welding" where the two blocks would fuse. Unless by infinitesimal chance the blocks broke apart exactly where they fused, this would result in material deposited on one block and pitting on the surface of another. But this doesn't happen. Also, if you have an old set of blocks with a less than factory fresh surface finish, the ability for them to wring together can be restored or enhanced with a light coat of a light oil such as WD-40. This would provide a layer preventing the metal atoms from joining, and is strong evidence to counter any occurrence of electron sharing or atom bonding. Finally, Johansson blocks are useful for much more than making sure your calipers haven't packed it in. Besides being able to calibrate almost any inside or outside measuring device to a known length standard, they can be used to setup parts in machines, inspect parts, simulate, mating parts, and find angles. By using a flat piece of steel with two v-shaped grooves a known distance apart, two metal pins of the same diameter, a stack of blocks, and trigonometry, the steel can be set to any angle desired.

Get a ZeroStat gun, and imply a charge on one of the blocks to see if the charge has any effect on the blocks. Wring the blocks, then try to charge one end of the blocks to see what happens.

This is really neat! I just learned about wringing yesterday!

I can so vividly remember the feeling and visual of twisting two kinds of metal like this together in the same way when I was a kid, but cannot remember what they were.

Maybe those dislocated elektrons start moving through both pieces. And therfore making it behave like on solid piece. You could check this by heating one side while them standing on top of each other and while being held together. If the second part heats up faster while being linked one could say, that the energy rich electrons traveld through the gap

I don't think static charges could be a factor since you need two different materials with a different average chance to lose an electron, creating net charges that are attracted, and the blocks are made of then same material.

I worked part time for a couple years certifying gauge blocks for companies and the process of wringing them together always fascinated me. IMHO and with little scientific background on it, I think the blocks are so close together, they start to share a few electrons and thus the pull towards each other.

The use of the laser was brilliant!

Could we test the breaking force to see if it might be the Casimir Effect? The math seems a little oversimplified here, given its rooted in quantum theory, but it looks reputable. math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Quantum/casimir.html

I have no idea what you're talking about and I'm too lazy to study quantum physics right now to find out, but measuring breaking force across these tests would be awesome. If the difference is consistent between oiled vs acetone washed or vacuumed vs unvaced, we'd at least have some pretty great confirmation of multiple forces at work. Hell, maybe even a jig to make the wringing motion and pressure consistent. That sounds really hard but i was also pretty baffled by how he could move things inside the vacuum until he whipped out the damn laser.

@THX..1138

Yeah I wonder if the Van der Waals force may actually be the Casimir Effect and it's really the quantum vacuum holding the parts together. With stiction flat surfaces are brought into very close contract. I mean we think of the plates as flat but, there not. On an atomic scale they're quite lumpy, almost like the Gauge Blocks were made of a sand that is the atoms. This lumpiness translates to a tremendous surface area. Could it be the atoms in surfaces of both plates are so close and have enough surface area between them that the quantum vacuum is pushing them together with enough force for the blocks to stick. At a distance of 100 times the typical size of an atom the Casimir Effect exerts the equivalent of about 1 atmosphere of pressure. If enough of the atoms in the two blocks are in close enough proximity to one another I think Casimir Effect could well be what's holding them together.

Cody, why have you or others not tested to see if it's a friction bond through heat? maybe with a thermal camera while twisting or twisting/sliding with a piece of thin paper/rice paper in between.
