The ITP Straight Styli Type A with a silicon nitride ball is a precision, all-purpose stylus designed for everyday metrology tasks. Built around a carbide stem for exceptional rigidity, it delivers stable contact and reliable readings, making it a go-to choice for CMM setups and scanning workflows. This M2-threaded version offers a compact 42 mm overall length, optimized for tight measurement spaces and repeatable data on metal parts, especially untreated aluminium.

  • Type: Straight stylus, Type A
  • Ball material: Silicon nitride ball for smooth, durable contact
  • Ball diameter options: Available in Ø1.0 mm to Ø5.0 mm; other sizes can be requested via configurator or by email
  • Stem material: Carbide stem for extreme rigidity
  • Thread: M2 threaded connection for compatibility with common holders
  • Overall length: 42 mm
  • Ideal use: Scanning and probing on untreated aluminium parts and standard metrology tasks

Thanks to the carbide stem’s rigidity, this stylus minimizes flex and deflection during contact, delivering repeatable measurements across a wide range of dimensions. The silicon nitride ball is particularly effective for scanning untreated aluminium, helping to minimize wear and wear-induced measurement drift. With an M2 thread and a compact 42 mm length, it fits a broad array of inspection setups and handheld probing scenarios. If your measurement needs require different ball sizes, you can configure or request alternative diameters through the available configurator or via email.
