A malleable probe is a slender metal rod instrument made from a metal soft enough to be bent by hand into a curve and to hold that curve: this is what "malleable" refers to, as against a rigid probe. Patterns sold this way are typically silver-plated brass, sterling silver, or a soft-temper stainless alloy. It has no joint, lock, or hinge; it is a single formed piece of metal, sometimes with a flattened grip section at the handle end. One or both ends are blunt and rounded, some patterns carry a small eye at one end, and some carry centimeter graduations along the shaft.

- Some patterns carry centimeter graduations along the shaft

TGI checks the material at the factory against its own requirement before it goes into production. That check is TGI's own inspection, not an independent laboratory test.
