Features
45 Degree Post Clamps
The RH45 optical post clamp is used to mount two 0.5 inch posts at a 45 degree angle. Each post is clamped with a secure flexure mechanism and both hexes can be tightened with a M4 or 5/32 tool. Left handed version LH45 is also offered.
Right Angle Post Clamps
Models CA-1 and 9935 Right-Angle Post Clamps mount two 0.5 in. optical posts, respectively, at 90° to each other. The thumb-turned screws permit fast, secure post mounting by hand with only moderate finger pressure.
Right Angle End Clamp for T configuration
Model CA-T Right-Angle End Clamp has a counterbored hole in one end and a locking setscrew on the side to mount two 0.5 in. optical posts in a T configuration. The setscrew on the side of CA-T can be upgraded to the MPH-STS Spring-Loaded Thumb Screw for easy clamping.
The (M-)T90 end post clamps function similarly with one post being clamped with a secure flexure mechanism and the other being secured by screwing the T90 into the 1/4-20 (M6) thread at the end of a post.
Parallel Post Clamp
The PC-0505 optical post clamp is used to mount two 0.5 inch posts parallel to each other and at the end of another 0.5 inch post. It can be post-mounted by 8-32 (M4) through hole in the center.
Adjustable Angle Clamps for Custom Mounting Angles
Models CA-2 and 9936 Adjustable-Angle Post Clamps hold two 0.5 in. optical posts at an arbitrary angle with respect to each other. CA-2 features one knurled knob to tighten both posts simultaneously. 9936 uses separate screws to tighten the posts and adjust the angle.
Join Posts of Different Diameters
The RA-05XX angle post clamps are used to join posts of different diameters at a 90 degree angle. Each post is clamped with a secure flexure mechanism and both hexes can be tightened with a M4 or 5/32 tool.
In the image shown a RA-0510 clamp is used to connect a PS-4 pedistal post to a SP-3 optical post.
Universal Hex Adjustment Knob
All hexs on the flexure post joining clamps can be adjusted with our HX4-5/32 universal hex knobs or a 5/32" or M4 tool.
