# Belongs to category:
Focusing blocks

# Description and specifications:
A complete focusing block for coarse (macro feed) and fine (micro feed) movement, complete with knobs.

The block from the SM-D model has metal knobs, one of which has a scale. As far as I know, this block is compatible with other SM models, even those with black plastic knobs, and they can be interchanged.

# Examples of use
- as a service part when repairing the focusing mechanism (vertical movement)
- if you want to quickly replace the entire block
- if you have an SM model with older knobs and want to replace them with metal ones

# Removed from microscope:

# Also compatible with the following microscopes:
