The ITP Straight Stylus with Silicon Nitride Ball is a precision probing extension designed for metrology setups that use star styli. It adds a reliable Z-axis probing option and is tailored for engineers who need consistent tip height and flexible probing elements.

• Threaded connection: M3 XXT thread for secure, repeatable attachment to compatible star-stylus assemblies.
• Overall length: 30 mm to provide a balanced reach in probing tasks without compromising stability.
• Probing element options: Ruby balls or silicon nitride balls available to suit different materials and contact conditions.
• Design purpose: Straight stylus engineered to clamp star styli and enable precise probing in the Z direction.
• Height matching: Extended thread designed to align the stem height with the star stylus for consistent measurement workflows.

With this ITP straight stylus, you gain a dedicated Z-direction probing option that integrates smoothly into existing star-stylus configurations. The silicon nitride ball (or ruby option) delivers durable contact with minimal wear, while the extended thread ensures your probe sits at the correct height across setups. This arrangement reduces rework, improves repeatability, and enhances measurement confidence in precision metrology tasks such as feature inspection, flatness checks, and form measurement.
