The ITP Straight Styli Type A with a ruby ball is a precision probing stylus designed for everyday metrology tasks. Built around a carbide stem for exceptional rigidity and a high-quality ruby ball, it delivers reliable, repeatable contact in tight measurement spaces.

  • Overall Length: 31.25 mm
  • Thread: M5, for compatibility with standard probe holders
  • Stem Material: Carbide for maximum rigidity and minimal deflection
  • Tip Material: Ruby ball available in sizes from Ø0.7 mm to Ø3.0 mm
  • Design: Straight stylus optimized for everyday probing tasks
  • Customization: Other ruby ball sizes can be requested via configurator or by email

This configuration delivers stable, wear-resistant contact that helps maintain measurement accuracy across repeated use. The hard ruby ball provides consistent tactile feedback and resists wear, while the carbide stem minimizes bending under probing forces. With a compact 31.25 mm length and an M5 thread, it integrates smoothly with common metrology systems, making it a dependable choice for CMM touch probes, handheld testers, and precision inspections. Ideal for probing small features, edges, shoulders, and radii with repeatable results in manufacturing or lab environments.
