The reasons that I suspect that <A> is an accessory for P6008 are:

1. the same lot of odds and ends contained a sealed Tek bag of accessories,
that appears to have the same part in it along with others (the longer
spring-loaded pin and several screw-on tips) that are also loose in the lot. I
have uploaded a picture (
/g/TekScopes/photo/259732/0?p=Created ,,,20,2,0,0 ) of the
sealed bag and the loose parts for comparison.

2. Exactly this collection of parts appears in figure 1-1 in the P6008
instruction manual ( )

3. I can't find any mention of this part in the P6201 instruction manual (
)

I am happy, of course, to be corrected on any or all of these points.

Hi Jeff,
You're right, it's absolutely meant for / suited to the P6008. I couldn't imagine, because of the relatively small BW (still 100 MHz) of the P6008, so some series inductance wouldn't harm so much and Tek didn't provide low-inductance clips as standard for many 100 MHz and even higher BW probes, and it perfectly fits the P6201 as well: I have 4 as-new P6201's, in original cassette, complete with accessories and - yes - I had to add the low-inductance thingy myself...
Also, the (screw-on) accessories in the sealed plastic bag in your photograph all suit the P6008, not the P6201.

So, you were right, although <A> fits the P6201 as well.
A possible clue: The pin <D> in your picture is longer than the pin in <A>. The probe input pin on the P6201 extends less far than the screw-on sharp pin of the P6008 in your sealed accessories bag.

Interesting!

<C> may be the "official" low-inductance ground clip for the P6201.
