Neuma offer 2 different bearing arms in order to achieve a softer or harder needle strike force (hit), depending on what you prefer or what purpose you are intending.
For a softer hit, the aluminium bearing arm is recommended, and for a more powerful hit, the brass bearing arm.
Generally, the brass bearing arm is used for heavy lining, colour packing, and shading with large needle groupings, while the aluminium bearing arm is for more delicate line work, grey shading, and multiple-pass colour blending.
