RM1G Linking Three 25 mm Rails

• Holds up to Three Optomechanics at Right Angles
• One-Piece Aluminum Construction for Excellent Rigidity
• Parallel and Perpendicular to Within 0.002" (0.05 mm)

The RM1G Construction Cube contains three 1/4"-20 (M6) counterbores on adjacent faces. Since it is machined from a single block of aluminum, it is ideal for constructions that need the highest available degree of sturdiness. It can be connected to up to three optomechanics by tightening our Low-Profile Channel Screws (sold below) through the counterbores, as shown in the image to the right.

If compatibility with more than three optomechanics is needed, or if optomechanics are to be placed on opposing faces, please consider the RM1F Construction Cube below.

RM1F Linking Four Ø1" Pillar Posts

• Holds up to Six Optomechanics at Right Angles
• One-Piece Aluminum Construction for Excellent Rigidity
• Parallel and Perpendicular to Within 0.002" (0.05 mm)

The RM1F(/M) Construction Cube contains a centered 1/4"-20 (M6) tapped hole on all six sides. Since it is machined from a single block of aluminum, it is ideal for constructions that need the highest available degree of sturdiness. It can be connected to up to six optomechanics by using setscrews.

Standard Cap Screw in RM1G

• Sold in Boxes of 100 Screws
• SH25LP38: 1/4"-20 Threading, 1/8" Hex Head
• SH6M10LP: M6 Threading, 4 mm Hex Head

Our Low-Profile Channel Screws have a reduced cap height relative to standard screws, permitting them to be used in tight spaces. In particular, they are recommended when neighboring screws are at a right angle and in close proximity, as in our XE25W3 Corner Cube or RM1G Construction Cube.

Shown to the right are a standard cap screw and a low-profile channel screw installed in an RM1G cube. The low-profile screw's shortened cap height prevents neighboring screws from interfering with each other.
