The UP-1A Universal Mounting Plate utilizes our patented rotating slot concept to provide mounting holes nearly anywhere, and in any orientation, on your optical table. The positioning flexibility of these plates make it much simpler to mount components and stages off the table hole pattern. These plates are also useful to adapt metric components to an English table - or vice versa. The plate is bolted to the table with a standard 1/4-20 (M6) cap head screw. Ample 1/4-20 (M6) theaded holes are available to mount a variety of components to the plate. 6-32 (M3) threaded holes are useful for mounting our 1.57 x 1.57 in. (40 x 40 mm) size stages.

The Model 38 Platform is an anodized aluminum plate with an array of tapped and clearance mounting holes for convenient, rigid attachment of components. Larger components and assemblies can be mounted on rod/clamp assemblies using the Model 38 as an interface platform. Model 38 is especially useful to mount English components to a metric table. If a larger mounting platform is needed, we suggest using Model 290-TP .
