It features a 1 mm ruby ball tip mounted on a stainless steel stem with an M3 threaded connection. The overall length is 21 mm with an effective working length of 4 mm and a stem diameter of 0.71 mm. Ruby is the preferred ball material for CMM styli due to its hardness and wear resistance, making this stylus well-suited for high-cycle dimensional inspection work. Licensed metrologists, CMM operators, and quality control technicians are the primary users of this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis stylus is suited for precision dimensional measurement tasks on coordinate measuring machines in manufacturing, quality assurance, and inspection environments. Its compact 1 mm ball diameter makes it appropriate for probing small features, tight bores, and fine-detail geometry where larger styli cannot access. The M3 thread is a standard CMM stylus thread size compatible with a range of probe bodies and extension configurations used in both manual and CNC CMM setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 mm ruby ball tip for precise, wear-resistant contact measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM3 threaded connection  -  standard CMM stylus interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel stem with 0.71 mm diameter for rigidity in tight-access probing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 mm effective working length supports small-feature inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21 mm overall length provides reach without excessive deflection risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece stylus construction  -  no sub-assembly required at installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service stylus for CMM probe bodies accepting M3 threaded styli.

Power down or place the CMM in a safe parked state before changing styli to protect the probe head from impact damage. Use the appropriate stylus wrench or torque tool as specified by your probe body manufacturer  -  overtightening an M3 stylus thread can damage the probe body insert. After installation, perform a full stylus qualification routine on a reference sphere before resuming measurement programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 mm (0.0394 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEffective Working Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 mm (0.1575 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 mm (0.8268 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.71 mm (0.0280 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ruby\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStylus Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 41111900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RENISHAW\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A-5000-3551\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RENISHAW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67914585276722,"sku":"A-5000-3551","price":54.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa3b48e1e1e247d632f5c4b0f5c8a1f1.jpg?v=1791249992","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/renishaw-a-5000-3551-cmm-ball-stylus-1mm-m3-ruby","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
