Indexable Ball Probe

A 1" Indexable Ball Probe is used for the tests, which can be rotated to allow a clean test site without replacing the probe or the requirement to clean and dry the test probe between tests.

The Indexable Ball Probe is a device that is usually available for use on the Nail Polish Adhesion Rig but is available separately for other applications. It is a device suitable for the measurement of e.g. tape adhesion. In this typical application the sample requires that the probe is clean and dry for each test. This may slow down the cleaning time between tests, therefore this device can be indexed after each test by simple manual rotation of the probe thus changing the probe to a ‘new’ probe and acquiring testing efficiency.

This probe serves to increase sample throughput to get data collected in less time by saving the necessary cleaning to the end of multiple tests. 12 rotations of the probe are possible before cleaning is required.

Thin or shallow samples.

• Allows the testing of multiples of samples without the need to clean the probe between tests.
