Product Description
The Pedestal Post System enables ultra-stable mounting of optical components. Made from precision ground stainless steel, these 1 in. (25.4 mm) diameter posts maintain long-term optical system alignment. Slotted clamping forks secure pedestals anywhere on an optical table.
The PS-B-0.5 and PS-B-1 Pedestal Bases have a 1/4-20 (M6) thru-hole and can be used for turning TPS Series Posts into pedestals.
SS-1-B converts a 1/4-20 (M6) hole into an 8-32 (M4) for mounting components close to the table surface.
The PS-SC Sliding Clamp secures an optical mount at any position and angle along the length of the post. PS-45 Series pedestal adaptors allow Suprema SN100/SS100 series and Ultima U100-A series mirror mounts to be pedestal mounted at a fixed 45 degrees.
An extension of the Pedestal Post system, the PS-Q Pedestal Cube is designed to allow mounting of PS Series Pedestal and Extension Posts at a 90-degree angle enabling the construction of ultra-stable multi-dimensional structures. What makes the Pedestal Cube system unique is its ability to allow alignable stacking of cubes on to posts. This is accomplished by using the PS-Q-A thread adaptor which fits into either of the two counterbores on the cube. The thread adaptor allows the cube to ...
