Features

Affordable Mounts for Every Application

M Series mounts are the industry's lowest cost mount. They hold the most frequently used optic sizes and are available in a host of configurations including Full Aperture, Hex-Driven, Clear Edge, CenterPoint™, Side-Clamp, Platform, and V-Groove versions.

Horizontal Mounting

The M1 mirror mount has screw holes in the corner of the back plate allowing them to be horizontally mounted directly on a standard post or pedestal. This configuration lends itself to mounting beam splitting cubes using the UPA-CH1 adaptor or for creating a vertical beam path using the UPA- 45D1 45-degree mirror adaptor.

Side-Clamp Mount

The M1-RA Side-Clamp mount has a unique built-in post clamp for mounting to standard 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) optical posts. With this side clamp mechanism, the mount can be easily rotated in and out of the beam path. The side-mounted clamp allows the mount to slide over the full length of the post from table surface level to the top of the post without interfering with the beam path.

Superior Adjustability

All M-series mirror mounts have an angular range of ±4°. The mounts are equipped with 100-TPI precision adjustment screws, which provide greater adjustment sensitivity over mounts that offer 80-TPI adjusters. These 100-TPI adjustment threads facilitate more precise fine-tuning, which allow faster and more efficient alignment.

Super Hard Carbide Pads

Our 1” (25.4 mm) and 2” (50.8 mm) mirror mounts are designed with tungsten carbide kinematic pads, ensuring a highly stable and repeatable kinematic mechanism. The tungsten carbide material is exceptionally hard at 1800 HK (Knoop), when compared to the competitor's steel pads at only 280 HK.
