The ITP Straight Styli – Type B with a silicon nitride ball is a precision probing accessory designed for everyday metrology tasks. Built for technicians and shops that rely on reliable, repeatable contact measurements in CMM and scanning workflows.

• Threaded connection: M5 thread for secure attachment to measurement heads.
• Overall length: 20 mm total length for compact reach and versatility.
• Stem material: Tungsten carbide stem provides high rigidity and stability under load.
• Ball material and size: Silicon nitride ball, available in Ø1.0 mm to Ø1.5 mm; other sizes can be requested via configurator or by email.
• Configuration: Straight stylus with stems that can be single or multi-stepped.
• Surface compatibility: Silicon nitride ball is recommended for scanning untreated aluminum.

This combination minimizes deflection during probing, delivering consistent data across features and surfaces. The 20 mm reach and M5 interface fit a wide range of probes, while the silicon nitride ball radii provide flexibility for delicate features, small holes, and tight radii. When you need a tailored setup, additional ball sizes can be requested through the configurator or by email to match your specific measurement strategy.
