Calibration Traceability meet AS9100C Requirement?

[DAHSR]

I purchased a new thread plug [STI 10-24 2B GO/NO GO] supplied with a Certificate of Compliance. The CofC states "XYZ Company has measured this gage and has determined it to have been manufactured and inspected to all specifications as ordered, and found to be in tolerance using masters traceable to NIST", and the usual CofC legality wording. The manufacturer is also an A2LA registered laboratory. Could this considered adequate evidence of calibration, that this is a calibrated device, IAW AS9100C?

No. You will need to obtain long form certification containing all requirements stated in Clause 7.6 listed on the certification issued by lab. Cert must contain actual measurements of gage being calibrated/verified (usually called as received, as left), master standards used, calibration dates of standards (done/due) and associated NIST reference numbers.

Although the form you received says that it was checked against measurement standards that are traceability to NIST, it does not show you what that traceability is. That means you do not have evidence of that traceability.

The answer is in your question, it is a certificate of compliance not calibration.
