These are names commonly used to refer to this manufacturer of microscopes and microscope parts, even if they are not official. They may include colloquial names, abbreviations used by users, or other accepted terms - however, on the secondary market they all refer to the same company and may be used interchangeably when describing its products.

# Description and specifications:
Ring with a 98 mm diameter and a dovetail, which holds the Zeiss 45 35 10 microscope stage on the stage carrier of the Carl Zeiss Axiolab microscope.

In Carl Zeiss Axiolab microscopes - as in most microscopes of the Axio series (among others Axioskop, Axioplan, Axiophot) - the stages are not permanently fixed with screws. They are interchangeable and are fitted onto the stage carrier, which has the form of a clamp. So that the stage can be fitted onto such a carrier, the stages have a dovetail ring on the underside, with a diameter matching the carrier.

Here I am offering exactly such a dovetail ring, removed from the underside of the Zeiss 453510 stage (the number is also written as: 45 35 10).

Basic data of this mounting ring:
Diameter: 98 mm
Width of the ring: 9 mm
Height (how far it stands out above the stage surface): 6 mm
How it is fixed to the bottom plate of the stage: with 4 screws
Removed from: the mechanical XY stage Zeiss 45 35 10
Which microscope this stage worked with: the Zeiss Axiolab re 45 09 05 microscope

The stage this ring comes from was mounted in a Zeiss Axiolab re microscope, P/N 45 09 05 (also written as 450905). However, the same stage model is also mounted on the following variants:
- Zeiss Axiolab drb KT, which carries the same number 45 09 05 (450905)
- Zeiss Axiolab E re, 45 09 07 (450907)
- Zeiss Axiolab A, 45 09 09 (450909)
- Zeiss Axiolab Pol, 45 09 10 (450910)

This item is not a spare part for repairing a microscope. It is a component of the microscope stage - and the stage can be used with any microscope onto whose stage carrier a stage with a 98 mm mounting ring can be fitted.

In a separate section, visible below, I describe a few possible uses for this ring.

# Examples of use
- as a service part, if you need to replace a damaged dovetail mounting ring on a Zeiss microscope stage
- if you have a Zeiss microscope stage (for example the 453510 model) in the screw-on version, that is without a mounting ring, and you want to turn it into a stage that fits the interchangeable carrier
- if you have a different stage model, perhaps even from a manufacturer other than Zeiss, and you want to fit a 98 mm ring to it so you can use it on Zeiss Axio microscopes
- if you need an original dovetail ring for your own DIY project (for example a home-built EPI stage, cryo stage or heating stage), so that your project can be mounted in the Zeiss stage carrier
