Snap-in Design for Easy Assembly
Adaptable to 30 mm Cage Systems
Add or Remove Components without Disassembly
Patent-Pending Design
OpticsCage+™ optical cage system utilizes an easy-to-use snap in design to expedite the creation of optical systems. Most optic cage systems only use a closed-hole captive design for adapting optic carriers to the 4-rod cage structure. This restriction requires a nearly complete teardown of a cage system to simply add or remove a component. The open-slot design of OpticsCage+ allows optical elements to be inserted directly into an assembled cage without the need for disassembly.

OpticsCage+™ Fixed Optic Mounts provide fixed mounting for 1 in. (25.4 mm) lenses, mirrors, and filters within the 4-rod optics cage structure. The OC1-LH1 fixed lens mount, the OC1-DB fixed mirror mount and OC1-FH filter mount can all be inserted easily into an assembled cage. The OC1-LH1-S has captive through holes and is designed as a connecting element or an end element. The OpticsCage+ lens and filter mounts all have 1.035-40 optic mounting threads and the mirror mount has a double bored aperture for the mounting of mirrors and UPA series optic adaptors. All of these mounts can be clamped to the optics cage rods with the commonly-used 5/64th-in. (2 mm) hex wrench.
