The ITP Straight Styli - Type A with Ruby Ball is a durable, straight stylus designed for daily standard use in tactile 3D measurement. Built for metrology professionals, it combines a rigid stainless steel stem with a ruby contact ball to deliver dependable, repeatable measurements in tight spaces.

• Material & Construction: Stainless steel stem provides high rigidity with a slightly higher weight for stable probing and lasting durability.
• Ball Material & Size Range: Ruby ball offers excellent wear resistance and consistent contact; available in ruby ball diameters from 1.0 mm up to 8.0 mm for versatile probing needs.
• Thread: M2 thread for secure mounting on compatible probes and adapters.
• Overall Length: 10.75 mm total length to balance reach and control in confined measurement areas.
• Design: Type A straight geometry ensures predictable contact angles and repeatable touchpoints during tactile measurements.

This combination is ideal for precision tasks such as feature inspection, surface profiling, and routine calibration in manufacturing, metrology labs, and quality control environments. The ruby ball’s hardness and round profile help minimize wear on both probe and workpiece, while the straight form provides consistent, reliable data across multiple measurement sessions. Use it with standard stylus holders and fixtures to achieve smooth, efficient probing in daily workflows.
