Reliance Blunt Probe

Reason

During a Quality Control inspection of the spherical diameter on the Reliance Blunt Probe, it was detected that parts were not conforming. Specifically, instead of having a spherical diameter, the probe was observed to have 2 radii and a flat surface. Additionally, it was observed that some parts exhibited an edge on the intersection between the radius and the diameter of the probe.
