Product Description
Cylinder Styli
Cylinder styli can be used in situations where correct contact with a ball stylus cannot be guaranteed, such as applications with sheet metal, pressed components or thin work pieces. Silver steel tips are heat treated and precision ground to a high tolerance.
These are used for probing holes in thin sheet material. In addition, various threaded features can be probed and the centers of tapped holes located. Ball-ended cylinder styli allow full datuming and probing in X, Y and Z directions, thus allowing surface inspection to be performed.
Tungsten Carbide
Tungsten carbide stems are best used for maximizing stiffness with either small stem diameters required for ball diameters of 1 mm and below, or lengths up to 50 mm. Beyond this, weight can become a problem and stiffness is lost due to deflection at the stem to body joint.
