The ITP Straight Stylus Type A is a precision probing accessory designed for professionals who need a lightweight, ultra-rigid contact tip for aluminum workpieces. With a silicon nitride ball and a carbon fiber stem, this stylus delivers reliable, repeatable measurements at an extended reach.

• Form factor: Straight stylus (Type A) with a compact, direct probing profile for consistent contact
• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball, selected for durability and compatibility with untreated aluminum surfaces
• Thread: M5 thread to fit a wide range of probe heads and systems
• Stem material: Carbon fiber stem offering low weight and high rigidity to minimize deflection
• Overall length: 54 mm to reach into recessed features while maintaining precision
• Customization: Other dimensions can be requested via configurator or by email
• Model reference: TCM5S6011054 for this configuration

In practical use, the carbon fiber stem reduces inertial load during rapid touches, helping keep measurement data stable and repeatable. The silicon nitride ball handles repeated contact with aluminum surfaces with reduced wear, contributing to longer stylus life and consistent probing results. Ideal for coordinate measuring machines (CMM) and handheld probing workflows, this stylus excels in scanning tasks where aluminum parts feature tight tolerances or challenging contours. For labs and workshops that require specific reach or tip configurations, dimension adjustments are available upon request to match your exact inspection needs.
