Meet the ITP Straight Stylus Type A with a silicon nitride ball—a robust, everyday probing solution for CMM users and metalworking shops. Its rigid carbide stem and precise silicon nitride ball deliver dependable measurements across a range of standard tasks.

• Thread: M5 mounting thread at the top for secure, repeatable attachment to standard measurement probes.
• Overall length: 30 mm from stem to ball, optimized for accessible reach in common fixtures.
• Stem material: Extremely rigid carbide, providing stability and minimizing deflection during probing.
• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball, selected for durability and smooth contact on metal surfaces, especially untreated aluminium.
• Design: Straight stylus configuration to ensure consistent contact and data capture along a single axis.
• Size options in the group: Ball sizes in this category range from Ø1.5 mm to Ø10.0 mm; other sizes can be requested via configurator or by email.

This straight stylus is designed for everyday standard use, offering a practical balance of stiffness, precision, and compatibility with common metrology hardware. The silicon nitride ball reduces wear on both the stylus and the workpiece, helping you achieve clean scans and stable data across sessions. If your application involves aluminium substrates or delicate surfaces, this Type A stylus provides a reliable, long-lasting probing solution that fits seamlessly into your measurement workflow.
