Instrument Styli Guidelines Stylus profilometers are often used for two different requirements, surface finish measurement and form (or contour) measurement. When measuring surface finish it is advisable to use a stylus with the smallest tip radius feasible to fully penetrate all of the surface features. The ISO standards dictate the choice of stylus based upon the expected surface finish. ISO 3274 specifies that a conisphere stylus should be used with a tip radius of 2, 5 or 10 μm and a cone angle of either 90 or 60 degrees. It should be noted that some local standards may require a different...
