The ITP Straight Styli Type A with a silicon nitride ball is a rigid, reliable probing stylus designed for everyday measurement tasks in metrology and quality control. It’s especially suited for scanning metal parts, including untreated aluminium, delivering consistent contact precision across sessions.

• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and smooth contact on aluminium surfaces.
• Stem material: Carbide stem provides exceptional rigidity and dimensional stability under repeated probing.
• Thread: M2 thread for compatibility with a wide range of probing systems and setups.
• Overall length: 41 mm from tip to base, offering a compact profile for tight inspection environments.
• Ball size range: Ball diameters from Ø1.0 mm to Ø5.0 mm are available in this range; other sizes can be requested via the configurator or by e-mail.
• Product line: Type A straight stylus, designed for standard, everyday measurement tasks with predictable contact behavior.

This combination—carbide rigidity, a silicon nitride ball, and a precise 41 mm length—delivers repeatable readings and longer tool life in demanding inspection workflows. The silicon nitride ball minimizes wear on both the stylus and the workpiece, reducing the risk of surface marking on aluminium parts. Ideal for routine probing in manufacturing, metrology labs, and repair environments, it provides a dependable, straightforward solution for accurate dimensional checks and surface profiling.
