Mounting Column 14

Column 14 is made for mounting optical posts with diameters of 8 to 14 mm. These columns feature an M6 female thread, so they can be mounted on carriers in Rail Systems 40, 65 or 95. They can also be mounted directly on optical tables with M6 threaded pins. Alternatively, the Clamping Fork can be used to position the column independently of existing hole patterns. Column 14 models are available in two lengths. In combination with the five different rod lengths available, a wide range of beam heights can be achieved. The columns are made of a high-quality aluminum alloy and have a matte black anodized surface.
