Carbide Probes has become a leading producer of standard and custom probes and styli by building a family-run business over three generations based on quality, service and customer satisfaction. The company’s approach to business is based on building more than just quality products – it builds trust among its satisfied customers by understanding their unique needs and offering standard and custom solutions that exceed their expectations.

In 1952 Earl Jacobs, a respected toolmaker in Dayton Ohio started the business by collecting customer orders during his lunch hour and manufacturing their replacement points at home at night. The business grew so rapidly that by 1963 Earl resigned from his job at the tool shop and it became his full time occupation until he retied in 1977. For over 31 years, Carbide Probes Inc. continued to grow and meet the specific needs of customers under the leadership of Dan Shellabarger, Earl’s son-in-law.
