The ITP Straight Styli Type A with a silicon nitride ball is a dependable, low‑cost probing solution for everyday metrology tasks. Designed for CMM and handheld scanning setups, it pairs a compact form with robust materials to deliver consistent, repeatable touchpoints.

• Ball material: Silicon nitride ball offers exceptional hardness, reduced wear on the workpiece, and smooth contact when probing untreated aluminium surfaces.
• Thread size: M5 thread for secure, compatible attachment to standard stylus holders and adapters.
• Overall length: 50 mm total length provides practical reach for mid‑depth features while maintaining rigidity in use.
• Construction: Hardened stainless steel holder and stem maximize stiffness and longevity, giving reliable performance under repeated use.
• Ball size options: Compatible with Ø5.0 mm to Ø8.0 mm balls; other sizes can be requested via the configurator or by email.

This straight stylus is specifically well-suited for scanning and probing aluminium parts, where the silicon nitride ball minimizes wear and delivers consistent contact geometry. The combination of a rigid stainless steel body and a precision ball supports accurate measurements across numerous cycles, making it a practical choice for production environments, training labs, and precision workshops. With flexible ball size options and a standard M5 interface, it integrates smoothly into existing metrology setups without sacrificing reliability.
