Test Indicator Ball Contact Point: 0.08" Ball Dia, 1.737" Contact Point Length, Carbide MPN:Z6802

The Test Indicator Ball Contact Point from Grainger is an essential tool used to measure hardness and provides the ability to apply a known force with a predetermined load rate while preventing damage to softer material surfaces during testing procedures. This carbide-constructed contact point featuring 0.08-inch diameter and 1.737-inch length provides durability & resistance to wear allowing for accurate and consistent readings over multiple tests, ensuring reliability in assessments through its rigid construction designed to handle varying hardness levels of materials without compromising precision. The ball design simplifies alignment on surfaces while minimizing damage when striking the material being tested making it suited not only for hardness measurements but also for depth of penetration or Brinell test readings. Apart from its practical use, the carbide tip also makes this contact point suitable in settings where steel may be used reducing friction while keeping it free from contamination preventing corrosion, extending life further on the jobsite making them ideal for users needing reliable and long-lasting tool in their quality inspection process.
