One side of the puck is flat to using probe on flat surfaces. Another side has
grooves for using a probe on cylindrical surfaces.
It is marked slots designed for ease of measurement of hardness on cylindrical
products of various diameters. Probe with demounted nozzle is usually using to
measure hardness in difficult places, such as narrow or deep groove.
The probe may be removed from the nozzle is used for measuring the hardness in
the narrow and hard to reach places.
