Description

The ITP Straight Styli - Type A with a ruby ball is a precision probing accessory designed for metrology work. Built for engineers and technicians who demand a rigid, reliable contact tip for CMMs and touch probes, it delivers repeatable measurements with a high-quality ruby ball.

  • Ball tip: Ruby ball tip, available in sizes from Ø0.5 mm to Ø6.0 mm, chosen for smooth contact and wear resistance.
  • Stem material: Carbide stem provides exceptional rigidity and dimensional stability under repeated probing.
  • Thread: M3 external thread for secure, compatible mounting with standard probe interfaces.
  • Overall length: 40 mm to offer a compact, versatile reach in tight fixtures.
  • Product family: ITP Straight Styli Type A, designed for everyday standard use with consistent performance.
  • Customization: Additional ruby-ball sizes can be requested via the configurator or by email to tailor the tip to specific features.

With a carbide stem and premium ruby tips, this stylus minimizes wear on both the tip and the workpiece while delivering stable, repeatable contact readings. The combination supports accurate data capture across a range of feature sizes—from small precision holes to broader radii—making it suitable for routine inspection, fixture-based probing, and high-volume metrology workflows. Its robust construction and standard M3 threading simplify integration into existing probe setups, reducing downtime and ensuring dependable performance in busy manufacturing environments. For best results, pair the right ruby-ball size with the feature being measured, keep the tip clean, and handle with care to preserve tip integrity over time.
