It serves as the sensing tip that contacts the workpiece surface during precision measurement, transferring movement to the indicator mechanism. The ball tip measures 0.078 inches in diameter and the overall contact point length is 1.45 inches. Carbide construction provides superior wear resistance compared to steel tips, making this contact point suitable for high-cycle inspection environments where dimensional accuracy is critical. Metrology technicians and machinist inspectors install and swap contact points as part of routine gauge setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis contact point is intended for use with Interapid test indicators in machine shop, toolroom, and quality control settings. It is appropriate for applications requiring a small-diameter ball tip to access tight features, measure inside bores, or trace contoured surfaces where a standard flat or pointed contact would not provide reliable results.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbide ball tip for extended wear life in high-cycle inspection use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall diameter of 0.078 inches (2.00 mm) for access to fine features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall contact point length of 1.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrop-in replacement tip format for Interapid test indicators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-piece package quantity for individual replacement needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Interapid test indicators as stated by the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eContact point replacement is performed by metrology technicians or machinists and requires no special certifications. Before swapping the contact point, ensure the indicator is removed from the spindle or fixture and the measuring mechanism is in a relaxed, unloaded position. Use the appropriate wrench or pin spanner as specified for the indicator model to avoid damaging the threaded contact stem. Do not overtighten, as the threads on precision indicator styli are fine and can be damaged by excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.078 inches (2.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: SPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21-062-5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SPIROTHERM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723265573170,"sku":"21-062-5","price":21.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f0d794acbc4bd8af7a8922569c122ac8.jpg?v=1788602411","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/spi-21-062-5-carbide-ball-contact-point-interapid","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
