Description

The ITP Straight Stylus Type A with a silicon nitride ball is a precision tactile stylus designed for everyday metrology and scanning tasks. Built for professionals using CMMs and portable probing systems, it combines a lightweight ceramic stem with a durable silicon nitride ball to deliver consistent, repeatable contact on metal surfaces, including untreated aluminum.

  • Thread: M3 thread for quick, secure mounting to standard probe heads.
  • Overall length: 52.5 mm, providing a balanced reach for tight fixtures without sacrificing stability.
  • Stem material: High-performance ceramic that keeps weight low while maintaining stiffness and rigidity during scans.
  • Ball material: Silicon nitride ball chosen for wear resistance and smooth interaction with metal workpieces.
  • Design: Straight geometry ensures consistent contact geometry across measurements and easy alignment with the probing axis.
  • Application: Ideal for routine scanning and tactile probing of untreated aluminum and other metrology tasks requiring reliable contact.
  • Customization: Additional dimensions and ball sizes are available on request via configurator or email for specialized setups.

Designed to minimize deflection and wear, this stylus provides stable, repeatable touchpoints that help you capture precise measurement data over time. The combination of a lightweight ceramic stem and a durable silicon nitride ball supports accurate scans in demanding environments, making it a dependable choice for aerospace, automotive, and precision manufacturing workflows where aluminum surfaces are common.
