Sure seems to indicate 4 tenths is the spec for the unit.

When I said my probe needed adjustment is was off by exactly 2x that amount or 0.0008 moving the 0.0005 indicator a little in each side of 0
I use tormach holder, hamier tips, . No drops, no spins. Good history of use, It even sets with a cover over it in tool rack.

I think those probe stylus' are ceramic to metal joints, maybe one is a bit loose, dont know if this has been mentioned.........

I've broken several... They appear to be a metal inner part consisting of the ball and a shank with ceramic molded around it and the screw part at the top. I suppose that the ceramic could be cracked without actually separating completely. I can post a photoe of the internals tomorrow if that would help.

The photo shows a Haimer tip that documents a distracted moment. The pink part is some sort of ceramic material and the ridged post on the ball secures it into the holder.
