Renishaw A-5000-6352 Ruby Ball Stylus Renishaw Probing System

A-5000-6352 Renishaw Ruby Ball Stylus is a straight M4-threaded probe stylus for Renishaw probing systems. It features a 5.0 mm ruby ball tip on a stainless-steel stem, with an overall length of 30 mm and an effective working length (EWL) of 26 mm. The ball diameter is 5 mm, and the shank uses an M4 × 0.7 mm thread, enabling secure installation in compatible Renishaw stylus heads. This replacement stylus is identified by part number A-5000-6352. Designed for contact probing, it is used in coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and machine-tool metrology workflows to locate features, measure precise edges, and execute routine calibration checks where a robust, standard-size tip is appropriate. The stainless-steel stem provides durability for repeated insertions and field use, while the ruby ball offers high hardness for wear resistance during touch-probe cycles. Compatible with Renishaw stylus interfaces that accept standard M4 ball-stylus tips, this part enables consistent measurement performance without altering the probe configuration.
