ABC Series Beam Dumps
Brief Introduction: The ABC series beam damper is mainly used to damper the useless laser beam.

Application context
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Remove higher-order structure and scatter to recover a clean Gaussian profile.
Produce the smooth wavefront interferometry and holography need at the input.
Combine pinhole filtering and collimation in one assembly ahead of the experiment.
System integration
Use these checks to connect ABC-15 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
Technical FAQ
Mounting Hole: M6. Match the thread standard and hole pitch before ordering. Metric and imperial hardware interchange only through an adapter, and a thread that is nominally similar is not necessarily the same pitch.
Main Body Material and Treatment: Black anodized aluminium alloy. Aluminium moves about 23 ppm per kelvin and stainless about 16. In a path where thermal drift is already budgeted, the material of the mount belongs in that budget rather than in the appearance of the part.
Net Weight(g): 35. Use the stated geometry and mass to fix beam height, clearance and the load carried by whatever this part is bolted to. These are the numbers that decide whether adjacent components physically collide.
Model selection
Compare ABC-15 with the closest available models in the ABC Series Beam Dumps family. Confirm option-dependent values on the final configuration before ordering.
