Ruby Ball Material

Ruby is the industry standard and the optimum stylus ball material for the vast majority of measurement applications. Very few applications exist where ruby is not the preferred ball material due to its exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability.
For heavy-duty scanning applications on aluminum or cast iron, silicon nitride and zirconia balls are preferred respectively.

Stainless Steel Stem Material

Stainless steel stem styli are widely used across many applications. For longer stylus lengths, ceramic stems provide additional crash protection by shattering upon collision, helping to protect the probe.
For short-stem applications, tungsten carbide offers maximum stiffness, while carbon fiber is ideal for specialized applications in harsh machine tool environments.
