hole location

I have to get a positional location (-A-|-B-|-C-) off a .028 diameter hole. The smallest probe (stylus) we have is .020 (.5mm)..... and of course thats , in theory, a clearance of .004 per side/radii... This does not seem to be working , because of the clearance. Does anyone know of a smaller stylus or a better way of inspecting? You know... with GD&T.... three datums.... if I use a micro-hite I am checking in two axis'. Ugh.... GD&T. Any help/ideas will be appreciated! Thanks

  • We have a .3MM in use on our rack for years before I got here.... Call it 20 total....? No issues what so ever other than yeah, its hella delicate. No issues calibrating at all. We had it on our old EXCEL and ONE and its still in use on those machines. Its for sure " use only as needed.

    If its used on a regular basis, you had better have 3-4 on hand. But, that applies to all the probes , extension, modules and such across the board as well.
