ITP Straight Stylus Type A with a silicon nitride ball is a precision probing accessory designed for everyday metrology tasks. It combines a highly rigid carbide stem with a hard, wear-resistant ball to deliver stable, repeatable contact when scanning metal parts, including untreated aluminum.

  • Thread: M5 threaded connection for secure mounting on compatible probes
  • Overall Length: 72 mm, providing reliable reach while maintaining rigidity
  • Stem Material: Extremely rigid carbide stem to support a wide range of measurement dimensions
  • Ball Material: Silicon nitride ball chosen for hardness, wear resistance, and smooth interaction with challenging surfaces
  • Ball Size Range: Available with ball sizes from Ø1.5 mm to Ø10.0 mm within this product group; other sizes can be requested via the configurator or by e-mail

This stylus is especially recommended for scanning untreated aluminum parts, where the combination of a durable carbide stem and a silicon nitride ball helps maintain data integrity over time. It’s also suitable for general, daily probing tasks where a dependable, straight stylus is desired. If you need a different ball size, use the configurator or contact us by email to explore available options within the same family.
