An inspection probe capable of accurate output in three axes, having a spherical probe tip affixed to an arm. Medially disposed about the arm between the end of the spherical tip and the opposite end of the arm is a pivot ball permitting the arm to pivot at its midpoint within a housing provided. The arm passes through the spherical ball permitting additionally linear movement relative to the pivot ball. Adjoining the end of the pivot arm is a transfer pin restricted to solely linear motion. The end of the probe arm and the adjacent surface of the transfer pin are provided with adjoining sliding surfaces so that all movement of the probe tip is thus transferred into linear movement of the transfer pin in a ratio of 1:1. The transfer pin in turn effects a suitable gauge for reading the movement of the probe tip.
