The ITP Straight Styli - Type A - Ruby Ball is a precision touch stylus designed for metrology and inspection tasks. With a ceramic stem for lightness and rigidity, paired with a high-quality ruby ball, it delivers reliable, repeatable contact for everyday measurement work.

  • Stem material: High-performance ceramics provide a very light yet rigid support, enhancing probing accuracy.
  • Ruby ball sizes: Premium ruby contact balls available from Ø3.0 mm to Ø8.0 mm to match feature geometry.
  • Thread: M3 thread at the top ensures secure mounting to compatible probe assemblies.
  • Overall length: 52.5 mm total length for comfortable reach in confined inspection areas.
  • Intended use: Straight stylus optimized for everyday standard usage in precision measurement and inspection workflows.
  • Customization: Additional dimensions can be requested via the configurator or by email.

This stylus combination—light ceramic stem and hard ruby ball—helps minimize inertial effects during probing, while delivering a durable, smooth contact surface that supports consistent measurements across repeated tasks. The Type A design offers dependable mounting and compatibility with standard probe systems, making it suitable for electronics, automotive, plastics, and general manufacturing metrology. For best results, select the ruby ball diameter that aligns with the feature size you’re inspecting, and use the configurator or email to explore any tailored dimensions.
