These magnetic bases reduce experimental set-up time by allowing free positioning and instant clampdown of optical components with the turn of a switch. They are the ideal accessories for all laboratories with ferromagnetic work surfaces such as optical tables or breadboards.

Features
Standard Magnetic Base
The MB-2 Magnetic Base provides a single 1/4-20 (M6) tapped hole ideal for mounting VPH or VPT Series Post Holders.
Compact Magnetic Base
The Model MB-3 Magnetic Base features an aluminum mounting plate, which provides two significant advantages compared to other economy bases: a generous array of tapped mounting holes, plus decoupling from the base’s magnetic field.
Magnetic and Kinematic Combined
Newport’s unique Model 110 Kinematic Magnetic Base is a space-efficient base that adds an inset kinematic interface to a generous array of tapped mounting holes. Components may be attached directly to the base, or to the unique kinematic top plate that lets you remove components and replace them with repeatable precision. The top plates are equipped with spring-steel clamping hooks that hold the two plates together. Alternatively, two bolts may be used to clamp the plates together, ensuring secure clampdown of cantilevered or rod-mounted loads. Model 110 may also be attached to tables on its side.
