The ITP Straight Styli Type A with Silicon Nitride Ball is a precision probing stylus designed for everyday metrology tasks, delivering rigid performance with reliable compatibility. Featuring an M5 thread and a 36.5 mm overall length, it integrates smoothly with standard probing systems for accessing tight features on metal parts, including untreated aluminum.

• Thread: M5 threaded stem for secure, quick mounting to compatible stylus holders.
• Overall length: 36.5 mm total length provides reach in confined measurement areas.
• Stem material: Extremely rigid carbide stem minimizes deflection and enhances measurement stability.
• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball chosen for hardness and wear resistance, ideal for demanding scans.
• Ball size range: Ball diameters in this group span from Ø1.5 mm to Ø10.0 mm to fit various measurement needs.
• Holder compatibility: Suitable for styli with Ø10.0 mm, Ø11.0 mm, and Ø12.0 mm holders depending on the measuring system.
• Customization: Other ball sizes can be requested via the configurator or by e-mail for tailored applications.

This stylus excels in delivering repeatable, accurate contact measurements with minimal wear on delicate surfaces. The silicon nitride ball is particularly advantageous for scanning untreated aluminum parts, while the carbide stem preserves rigidity across a wide range of dimensions. With its standard 36.5 mm length and flexible holder options, it supports a broad spectrum of measurement scenarios—from routine inspections to intricate feature probing—making it a dependable choice for both production floors and lab environments.
