This is description of this part:
Specimen holder with spring-loaded clamp for the XY stage of Olympus BH-2 microscopes:
- BH2 BHS
- BH2 BHT
- BH2 BHTU
This is not a cheap plastic attachment - it is a solidly manufactured construction from Olympus Japan, highly sought after on the used microscope market.
Note - if the spacing of the mounting holes matches, this attachment can also be installed on stages from other manufacturers.
Note - Olympus produced specimen holders with fixed clamps as well as models with a spring-loaded clamp. Here I show and offer the spring-loaded version.
In the photos visible in the gallery you can see the exact dimensions of the element described and offered here.
What is this part needed for?
- if you have a stage that is missing the specimen holder
- if you have a "simple" specimen holder and want to replace it with one with a spring-loaded clamp
- if you want to install this holder on a stage in a microscope from another manufacturer
