The contact point measures 1-7\/16 inches in length and features a 2.00 mm ruby ball tip. Ruby is a preferred tip material in precision metrology because it offers high hardness, low friction, and excellent wear resistance, maintaining dimensional accuracy over repeated measurement cycles. This contact point is installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and calibration professionals who require consistent, repeatable contact geometry in surface, bore, or feature inspection work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis contact point is suited for applications in machine shops, quality control labs, and toolroom environments where a test indicator is used to check runout, flatness, alignment, or part location. The ruby ball tip reduces the risk of surface scratching on finished or hardened workpieces. It is a direct-fit accessory for Brown and Sharpe test indicators and is appropriate for use in both manual and fixture-mounted indicator setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRuby ball tip provides high wear resistance and low friction for long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall diameter of 2.00 mm and tip diameter of 2.00 mm for consistent contact geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContact point length of 1-7\/16 inches suits standard indicator reach requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Brown and Sharpe test indicators for direct replacement or spare use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece construction for straightforward installation without additional hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Brown and Sharpe test indicators as stated by the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContact points are installed and serviced by machinists or metrology technicians. Before replacing a contact point, remove the indicator from any active fixture or spindle to avoid accidental damage. Use the appropriate contact point wrench or driver to avoid stressing the indicator stem threads. Verify that the replacement point is fully seated and torqued per the indicator manufacturer guidelines before returning the instrument to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Point Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ruby\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 41111600\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: Z6301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SPIROTHERM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723863982386,"sku":"Z6301","price":67.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/44f225b7f9f456a3c39ec9dad52434e3.jpg?v=1788608975","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/spi-z6301-test-indicator-ball-contact-point-ruby","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
