optical rider d

The Optical Rider D has been designed to be used with the Optical Precision Bench D, for mounting optical attachments on a stem. It is perfect for research and demonstration experiments requiring maximum accuracy. Coming in a choice of two base widths, and a choice of three sleeve heights, there should be enough choice to suit everyone. 

benefits of the optical rider d

The Optical Rider D is made of black, anodised aluminium for a tough, reliable product. The Optical Rider is compatible with several D-model optical components, allowing you to attach the components to the Optical Precision Bench D. Thanks to a hole drilled in the middle of the base and an accompanying scale, it is possible to read off the position of the centre of the rider on the optical bench directly.

The riders are preliminarily fixed to the optical bench via springy built-in plastic nipples until the grub screw is tightened. Long-term attachment is designed to protect the materials using a stainless steel pressure shoe rather than the point of a screw, while the stems of the optical equipment placed on the bench are also designed to protect the materials as they are clamped using a stainless bracket.
