Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / Machinery calibration
French term or phrase: Bague étalon masters
The document lists several points that should be included on a sort of fact sheet that needs to be filled in for each piece of measuring equipment (needing calibration) in the factory.
e.g. Numéro de série:.......
Désignation: Bague étalon masters
Date d'étalonnage: .........

I realise that 'étalon' here refers to the calibration itself (étalonner / étalonnage etc.) but can't put the words together to form the name of a bona fide piece of equipment.

Any suggestions very welcome.

TIA

Explanation:
Such a thing certainly exists, but whether it's the same as the French I don't know (yet).

There's a "bague étalon" here that is used for checking the calibration of a bore micrometer :

Ring Gages - (92 companies)
Ring gages are used for go / no-go assessment compared to the specified dimensional tolerances or attributes of pins, shafts, or threaded studs

The dial bore gauge is one of the most accurate tools for measuring a cylindrical bore or for checking a bore for out-of-roundness or taper. The gauge does not give a direct measurement. It identifies the amount of deviation from a preset size or the amount of deviation from one part of the bore to another. A master ring gauge, outside micrometer, or vernier caliper can be used to preset the gauge.
