An inspection master can perform three- and five-axis measurements wherein measurement in a rotation axis or/and turning axis direction for a five-axis processing machine is added. In one aspect, peripheral-surface spherical reference portions protrudes laterally on a peripheral surface of a master main body having a tubular shape, including the peripheral surface and an upper surface, and an upper reference ball for detection of an inclination angle of the body protrudes upward on the upper surface. The reference portions are provided at two or more portions of the peripheral surface in a circumferential direction thereof. In another aspect, an upper reference ball protrudes upward on the upper surface, and upper-surface spherical reference portions protrudes upward at one or more portions of the upper surface on an outer side with respect to the ball. In another aspect, both the peripheral-surface and upper-surface spherical reference portions are on the master main body.
