Dial indicator probe "Rubin" — 2 mm ruby contact ball, M2.5 thread

Dial indicator probe "Rubin" designed as a replacement contact point for precision dial indicators and measurement assemblies in workshops and inspection benches.

• Ruby contact ball 2 mm diameter
• M2.5 threaded connection for simple fitting
• 30 mm overall length for reach and clearance
• Compatible with dial indicators featuring M2.5 thread

Consistent contact for repeatable results

The probe uses a ruby ball with a 2 mm diameter as the contact element, which provides a hard, wear‑resistant surface that reduces deformation and maintains measurement integrity over time. This construction supports repeatable measurements in routine inspection tasks and minimises the need for frequent replacements. The combination of a precise ball contact and a compact stem is ideal where small contact radii are required for confined or delicate features while preserving long‑term stability.

Secure mounting and practical dimensions

Fitted with an M2.5 thread and an overall length of 30 mm, the probe is engineered for straightforward retrofitting to compatible dial indicators. The threaded connection ensures a reliable mechanical interface that resists loosening during handling, while the stem length provides access to recessed features without compromising manoeuvrability. These attributes contribute to reduced set‑up times and lower downtime in repetitive inspection operations, supporting efficient workflow in production or quality control environments.

Workshop benefits and application scope

As an accessory for standard dial indicators, this contact point is intended for measurement tasks that demand small contact radii and durable performance, such as fine mechanical parts or precision fittings. The lightweight design and compact profile enable flexible use on benches and in fixtures, improving accessibility to blind or step features. Combined with Metav’s broad supply chain and product range, the probe offers a pragmatic way to maintain measurement capability across a workshop without overhauling existing instruments.
