ITP Straight Stylus Type A offers a precision probing solution built for everyday metrology tasks. It pairs a rigid carbide stem with a silicon nitride ball to deliver reliable, repeatable measurements, especially on untreated aluminum surfaces.

• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball designed for smooth contact and high wear resistance, particularly effective when scanning untreated aluminum.
• Stem material & rigidity: Carbide stem provides exceptional rigidity to minimize deflection and preserve dimensional accuracy across a wide range of measurements.
• Thread: M3 thread for quick, secure attachment to standard probe holders and fixtures.
• Overall length: 31 mm overall for a compact, balanced probing profile in tight or recessed areas.
• Product range context: Part of a family with ball options from Ø1.5 mm to Ø5.0 mm; other dimensions can be requested via the configurator or by email.

This stylus is ideal for metrology with CMMs or handheld scanning setups where steady contact and long-term durability matter. The silicon nitride ball reduces wear during repeated scans on metal workpieces, while the carbide stem keeps probing accuracy consistent even under higher probing forces. The 31 mm length strikes a practical balance between reach and control, making it suitable for a variety of inspection tasks. If you need a different ball diameter, you can explore other options in the same family through the configurator or by contacting support for custom dimensions.
