Aluminium basic material for Cantilever ( Stiffer and lighter the better ) High End Cartridges use Boron or Sapphire or Diamond
Young modulus, or the modulus of elasticity in tension or compression (i.e., negative tension), is a mechanical property that measures the tensile or compressive stiffness of a solid material when the force is applied lengthwise.
Silly Putty (increasing pressure: length increases quickly, meaning tiny
Aluminum (increasing pressure: length increases slowly, meaning high
Higher Young's modulus corresponds to greater (lengthwise) stiffness.
E Young's Modulus
Boron 656
Diamond 1,050
Aluminum 68
Sapphire 470
Ruby 372
Zirconia 200
