Mounting mirror holder

not specified

Overview
Low Wavefront Distortion Gimbal Mounts provide a low-stress, temperature-resistant mounting solution for 25 mm or 50 mm diameter mirrors. The design uses a flexure spring to relieve stress on the mounted optic and applies a controlled opposing force at the retainer ring contact points for stable retention. A positive locking device increases resistance to vibration and thermal drift. Mounting threads on four of six sides simplify OEM integration.

Key features

• Pivot point centered on the optical surface for accurate tip/tilt
• Low-stress flexure-spring mounting to minimize wavefront distortion
• Positive locking device for vibration and temperature stability
• Mounting threads on 4 of 6 sides (facilitates OEM integration)
• Available for 25.0/25.4 mm and 50.0/50.8 mm optic diameters

Product variants

• 25.0 / 25.4 mm optic diameter — stock #71-792
• 50.0 / 50.8 mm optic diameter — stock #71-793

Technical specifications

• Angular range: ±3°
• Mounting threads: M4 x 0.7 (threads on 4 of 6 sides)
• Pivot point: centered on optical surface
• Mount type: low wavefront distortion gimbal with flexure spring and positive lock

Applications

• OEM optical assemblies and instrument integration
• Benchtop optical systems requiring minimal induced wavefront error
• Environments with vibration or thermal variation where stable mirror retention is required
