Technical Description
(1) The CSB05 series Ø1/2 inch lens tubes have no flanges or SM05 external threads at the ends, allowing optical components inside to be accessed from either end. Two SM05 retaining rings are included for securing components.
(2) The fully internally threaded SM05 (0.535″-40) body enables stacked connection with SM05 externally threaded components, and is compatible with 16 mm cage systems for flexible construction of compact optomechanical systems.
(3) The SPW-SM0550 retaining ring wrench allows safe and easy adjustment of retaining rings without risk of damaging optical components. The aluminum knurled handle and hollow interior design permit beam passage during component adjustment.
