Ingun GKS-075 217 120 A 1000 Probe, Star Tip, 75mil

The INGUN GKS-075 217 120 A 1000 (INGUN item GKS-075-0048) is a spring-loaded test probe for the 1.91 mm (75 mil) grid, seated in a KS-075 receptacle so probes can be swapped from the top of the fixture as tips wear.

Tip style 17 is a hexagonal pyramid with cutting edges, self-cleaning. Where the 01 needle puts everything on a single point, the 17 lands several edges at once, so it bites through oxide, conformal residue and lead-free pad finishes while spreading load across a wider footprint. That makes it the workhorse tip for flat plated pads and reworked boards where a needle gives intermittent readings. Its 1.2 mm face needs more clearance than a needle, so it is the wrong pick for a via squeezed between components. This is the 1 N version; the otherwise identical 1.5 N variant is stocked alongside it for targets that need more force to break through.
