Mirror Mount, Suprema^®, 0.5 in., (3) 100-TPI Allen-Key Actuators

Suprema Industrial Mounts were tested against the best competitive mounts and demonstrated superior drift stability as shown in the graph.

Every Suprema mount is heat treated as part of the fabrication process. Heat treating relieves the build up of fabrication stresses which improves the overall stability of the mount.

All Suprema mirror mounts are made from stainless steel making them the most stable and easiest to align.  Stainless steel is 3X stiffer than aluminum so it flexes significantly less allowing easier alignment.  Stainless steel's coefficient of thermal expansion is lower than aluminum making it more stable during temperature fluctuations.  Stainless steel makes Suprema the flag ship of Newport’s mirror mount offering.

Suprema industrial mirror mounts feature Allen-key adjustments to save space and prevent unintended adjustment.For long-term stability, screw lock is included in select models. The jam nut lock, used for SS100 mount, and hex broach lock, used for SS050 mount, exert an axial force on the adjustment screw which locks the mirror mount's alignment in place. These locks can be tightened either by hand or by using an Allen-key.

The SS050 models feature alignment pin holes on the bottom (base) of the mount to enable keying of the position and orientation by means of dowel pins when directly mounting. (Note: Dowel pins not included with mount.) This is especially helpful in OEM applications.
