ITP Straight Stylus Type A with Ruby Ball is built for precision probing in metrology, inspection, and routine machining setups. Designed for everyday standard use, it pairs a ultra-rigid carbide stem with high-quality ruby balls and a compact 51.5 mm overall length, featuring an M3 thread for secure mounting.

  • SKU / model: THM303004051
  • Overall length: 51.5 mm
  • Thread: M3 threaded shank for reliable attachment to common probe heads
  • Stem material: Carbide stem providing exceptional rigidity and dimensional stability under load
  • Ruby ball range: High-quality ruby balls from Ø0.5 mm up to Ø6.0 mm for precise contact
  • Geometry: Type A straight stylus for consistent, straight contact geometry
  • Customization: Further ruby-ball sizes available on request via configurator or by e-mail

The carbide stem's stiffness minimizes bending during probing, delivering repeatable measurements in tight spaces. The ruby ball surface offers durable, wear-resistant contact that helps protect both the stylus and the workpiece, while ensuring accurate signal transmission in metrology tasks. With its standard M3 threading and measured 51.5 mm length, this stylus integrates smoothly into common inspection rigs and probing systems. If you need sizes beyond the listed range, you can request additional ruby-ball diameters through the configurator or by email to tailor the tool to your workflow.
