Machined from heat-treated steel, the ball measures 0.375 inches in diameter and mounts on a 0.1875-inch slip-fit shank. The ball center sits 0.3 inches above the shoulder bottom and 0.75 inches above the shank bottom. Ball and shank concentricity is held to 0.0002 inches, making this component suitable for repeatable, high-accuracy inspection setups. Machinists, toolmakers, and metrology technicians install these in CMM fixtures, jigs, and gauging plates where consistent datum reference is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tooling ball is intended for inspection fixturing in manufacturing and metrology environments. The shoulder design provides a positive seating surface against a mating bore or fixture face. The slip-fit shank allows installation without threading, simplifying changeout in modular fixture systems. Typical applications include CMM datum setups, fixture alignment, and part-location references on precision machining and inspection fixtures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat-treated steel construction for hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.375-inch ball diameter with 0.0002-inch ball-to-shank concentricity tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.1875-inch slip-fit shank with a tight tolerance of +0.0000 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder design provides a positive, repeatable seating surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall center to shoulder bottom: 0.3 inches; ball center to shank bottom: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo tapped shank and no breakaway feature — fixed, solid assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard inspection fixture and gauging applications requiring a 0.1875-inch slip-fit shank bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by toolmakers or metrology technicians during fixture build or setup. Press or hand-fit the slip-fit shank into the mating bore to the specified depth before securing the fixture assembly. Ensure the mating bore is clean and free of burrs to achieve full seating against the shoulder. Do not force or hammer the ball assembly, as this may affect concentricity or damage the seating surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooling Ball Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Attachment Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slip-Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Center to Shoulder Bottom\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Center to Shank Bottom\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall and Shank Concentricity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShoulder\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreakaway\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapped Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat-Treated\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 826810-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696188129586,"sku":"826810-G","price":61.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5c490465ebb8ae87a1096e8e8119d4fa.jpg?v=1788340378","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-826810-g-inspection-tooling-ball-3-8-in-slip-fit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
