SM2-Compatible Translation Mounts

This page is a compilation of all of Thorlabs' SM2 (2.035"-40) threaded translation mounts in order to allow for the quick selection of a translation mount if SM2 threading is a primary requirement. Thorlabs also has similar compilations of SM threaded translation mounts for Ø1/2" (12.7 mm) and Ø1" (25 mm) optics. If SM threading is not a primary requirement for the translation mount, consider using the manual or motorized translation mount navigation menus.

Post-Mountable SM2-Threaded XY Translator
  Designed to Center Ø2" (50 mm) Optics in a Beam Path
  High Resolution Adjusters Provide 250 µm/rev for Micron Sensitivity
  SM2 (2.035"-40) Threads Compatible with Our Extensive Selection of SM2 Lens Tubes
  Wobble: <100 µrad
  Max Optic Thickness: 11.25 mm

This mount utilizes two M3x0.25 fine adjustment screws to provide ±1 mm of travel along both axes perpendicular to the optical axis. The 250 µm/rev adjustment screws have 5/64" hex socket in the back end of each screw so that hex key may be used to achieve for better feel than the thumb screw knob when making small incremental movements. The mounting bore for the optic is SM2 (2.035"-40) threaded, which makes the mount compatible with SM2 lens tubes and other SM2 threaded components. The optic is held in the mount using the included SM2RR retaining ring.
