This is description of this part:

First, the most important thing - carefully look at the photos. Note that this trinocular (photo tube) does not include a binocular eyepiece head.

Zeiss photo tube.
Application: Zeiss Axio microscopes, second series
Manufacturer number: 425503-9901-000
Light split: 0/100 and 100/0

This trinocular photo tube contains a Zeiss infinity correction tube lens 425308-0000-000.

Parameters of the Zeiss 425308 lens:
Lens type: correction lens (en: infinity corrected tube lens)
Magnification: none (i.e. 1x)
Wavelength range: 380 - 700 nm
Diameter: 40 mm
Length: 12.8 mm
Thread: M36 x 0.75

The Zeiss tube lens 425308-0000-000 is required to use infinity-corrected Zeiss microscope objectives on microscopes from other manufacturers - including those designed for 160 mm tube length. It is also very often used in super macro photography to connect infinity-corrected objectives to a camera.

This element can be a solution to the following issues:
- How to repair or replace the prism in the Zeiss 425503 photo tube?
- What to do in case of prism delamination in the Zeiss 425503 head?
- Repair of a mechanically damaged Zeiss 425503 trinocular tube
- What to do if the Zeiss "tube lens" 425308 is damaged, scratched, or of poor quality?
- Can Zeiss objectives be used on microscopes from other manufacturers?
- Can infinity-corrected objectives be used on a 160 mm microscope?
- How to take super macro photos using infinity-corrected microscope objectives?

And once again at the end: carefully look at the photos. Note that this trinocular (photo tube) does not include a binocular eyepiece head.
