The Polaris ø50 mm Mirror Mount, model POLARIS-K50S4/M, is a high-quality optics mount manufactured by Thorlabs, a renowned brand in the field of optical hardware. This mount is designed to securely hold circular optical components with a diameter of up to 50 mm, providing a stable platform for precise optical alignment and manipulation.
The mount is made of stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. It features a kinematic optic mount design, which allows for tip-tilt adjustments in two axes. This is achieved through the use of two hex adjusters, each with a 1/4 inch thread and a pitch of 100 threads per inch. The adjusters provide a fine tilt angular range of 3.4 degrees, allowing for precise alignment of optical components.
The Polaris mount is compatible with 8-32 post mounting screws, providing flexibility in integration with other optical systems. It also boasts a high pointing stability of 5 µrad, ensuring minimal disturbance to the optical alignment during operation. The mount is vacuum compatible, with a torr rating of 1e-09, making it suitable for use in high vacuum environments.
The POLARIS-K50S4/M model is available in the metric version, as indicated by its 'Metric' metric imperial classification. The optical shape is circular, and the optics diameter size ranges from 50 to 50 mm. The optic thickness must be at least 3 mm.
