Spi Z3810 Cmm Stylus Extension M2 Female M2 Male

Product Description

The SPI Z3810 is an M2 female to M2 male stylus extension designed for use with CMM touch trigger probes. It provides a rigid, precisely dimensioned intermediate link between a probe body and a stylus, allowing technicians to reach into recessed features or increase stylus standoff distance without sacrificing measurement accuracy. With an overall length of 10mm, this extension fits into tight measurement envelopes where longer or bulkier extensions would be impractical. Metrology technicians and CMM operators install this component as part of a stylus assembly on coordinate measuring machines in quality control and inspection environments.

This extension is suited for dimensional inspection applications in manufacturing, tooling, and quality assurance settings. It threads directly onto standard M2 touch trigger probe systems, serving as a compact spacer or reach extender in stylus configurations. Typical use cases include inspection of shallow bores, recessed datum features, and tight-tolerance part geometries where stylus positioning must be carefully managed. The M2 thread standard is common across a wide range of CMM probe systems used in both shop-floor and metrology-lab environments.

Key Features

• M2 female connection on one end, M2 male connection on the other for standard probe compatibility
• 10mm overall length provides compact reach extension for tight inspection envelopes
• Designed for use with CMM touch trigger probe assemblies
• Compact form factor minimizes added mass and potential deflection in the stylus assembly

Compatibility

Designed for use with CMM touch trigger probes using the M2 thread standard. Specific compatible models or probe families are not listed in available product data; verify thread engagement and stylus assembly configuration against your CMM manufacturer specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

CMM stylus extensions should be installed by a qualified metrology technician or CMM operator familiar with probe qualification procedures. Hand-tighten the M2 threaded connections carefully to avoid cross-threading or over-torquing the fine-pitch threads. After assembling the stylus extension into the probe stack, re-qualify the probe on the CMM to account for any change in effective stylus length or mass. Avoid contaminating the thread interface with oils, debris, or sealants that could affect thread engagement or introduce measurement error.
