Product Series Overview

Precision 100 mm Dovetail Optical Rails

The PRC-3 Carrier is are easy to use and is compatible with PRL Series dovetail rails. The rail/carrier system is designed to provide maximum versatility in minimum table space. This 3.5 inch wide carrier has 1/4-20 holes and may be removed or installed at any point on the rail. The aluminum carriers ride on extra-hard polymer pads, selected for low friction, resistance to cold flow, and long life. The overall nominal height of a carrier mounted on to a rail is 1.256 in. (31.9 mm). Convenient thumb-adjust lock knobs securely clamp the carriers in place anywhere on the rail.

Precision Dovetail Design for Sturdy Hold and Excellent Linearity

The PRL Series Precision Dovetail Optical Rail system maintains a low profile with its 3.93 in. (99.8 mm) wide base to provide a sturdy hold of carriers with a combined height of 1.26 in. (31.9 mm). The precision-machined, anodized aluminum dovetail construction provides smooth and easy-to-use carrier translation with a straightness of 0.001 in over 8 in. (25 µm over 25 cm).

Four Optical Rail Lengths Available

Optical rails come in 6.00 in (16.7 cm), 12.5 in. (31.7 cm), 24.3 in. (61.7 cm) and 36.5 in (92.7 cm) lengths and are compatible with English or metric table hole patterns.
