Specimen stubs for steel ball samples, with holes sized to seat balls for SEM observation, in four versions: DZ19048 (8 holes, 25 mm diameter x 6 mm high), DZ19049 (9 holes, 25 x 10 mm), DZ19047 (7 holes, 40 x 10 mm) and DZ19052 (7 holes, 50 x 10 mm). All are M4 with 3.5 mm diameter holes; hole depth is 1, 1, 2.5 and 3.4 mm, for balls of 4, 4, 10 and 12.7 mm respectively. Choose the version that matches your ball diameter. Dimensions are measured by hand and may vary slightly; stubs are lightly polished and may show minor machining marks.
For a steel-ball study, select the intended ball size first, then consider how the seated specimen will present the area to be examined. SEM preparation requires the surface of interest to remain exposed. Use the body dimensions and hole arrangement to plan that presentation, and confirm compatibility with the laboratory’s specimen stage.
