Anyone have a good source to share that keeps a good variety and stock of Hexagon probe tips. Specifically for the RWP38.41 part probes. Maybe someone that has a good website to order from as well would be helpful. Previously and currently use M&H In-Process USA out of Texas.

McMaster has probe tips. You might check them.

Never tried them. The website looks good at a glance. I will dig deeper tomorrow. Thanks!

We use CarbideProbes.com. They have carbide, ruby, and delrin. Many sizes and shapes. Quick delivery and the cost seems reasonable to me.

Since I'm relatively new to the probing game, what would a Hex probe tip be used for?

Hexagon is the name of the company, they make CMM's and probes etc. They also own M&H who also sell probes, not sure if they are going with the Hexagon name going forward or if there's a difference there.

For what it's worth I have an M&H probe, but use Renishaw carbide tips, the thread is interchangeable

I have been wanting to try one of our Renshaw tips on the Hexagon probes. Now I know it works, thanks!
