It features an 8 mm ruby ball tip mounted on an M2 threaded shank with an overall length of 12 mm. The ruby point material is chosen for its hardness and dimensional stability, delivering repeatable contact performance across high-cycle inspection routines. This stylus is installed by metrology technicians and quality control professionals who require consistent, accurate probe contact when measuring part geometry on CMM systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Z3600 is suited for coordinate measuring machine setups in manufacturing and quality assurance environments, including automotive, aerospace, and precision machining shops. Its compact 12 mm overall length and 8 mm ball diameter make it appropriate for general-purpose surface and feature inspection. The M2 thread interface allows it to connect directly to compatible CMM probe bodies and extension systems using the standard M2 threaded coupling common across many CMM platforms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 mm ruby ball tip for high hardness and long-term dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 mm overall length suits general-purpose CMM inspection tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 thread on both stylus and probe interface for broad compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRuby point material minimizes wear under repetitive contact cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor fits standard CMM probe bodies without extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade stylus for CMM systems using M2 threaded probe bodies and stylus holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of CMM styli should be performed by qualified metrology technicians following the CMM manufacturer's probe qualification procedures. Power down or pause the CMM and disengage any active scanning routines before changing styli. Avoid over-torquing the M2 thread; use the manufacturer-recommended stylus wrench or torque tool to seat the stylus without damaging the thread or seating surface. After installation, re-qualify the stylus on the CMM to update the tool offset before resuming measurement routines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStylus Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProbe Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ruby\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: 0.38 pounds\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: SPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Z3600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SPIROTHERM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696538288434,"sku":"Z3600","price":135.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b6f78bbd99f6120e42dbf9279f500513.jpg?v=1788343715","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/spi-z3600-cmm-ball-stylus-8mm-ball-m2-thread-ruby-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
