Pre-aligned optical axes
Four rods define the axis, so every element threaded onto them starts square and centred.

Application context
Why this design is used
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Modular subassembly building
Build a relay, filter block or launch module that can be moved between setups intact.
Compact instrument integration
Package an optical train into a rigid unit for OEM and portable instruments.
System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect CSP1-RMS to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optic it accepts
- Inner Bore: RMS(0.800"-36) · Optic Diameter: Optic Diameter
- Check diameter and thickness together. A holder that accepts the diameter can still fail to retain an optic that is thinner than its minimum, and clear aperture is normally smaller than the optic the mount holds.
- Mounting interface
- Post Mounting: M4
- 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.
- Material and finish
- Material: 6061 Aluminum Alloy · Surface Treatment: Black Anodic-Oxidation
- 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.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for CSP1-RMS
Which optics fit the CSP1-RMS?
Inner Bore: RMS(0.800"-36) · Optic Diameter: Optic Diameter. Check diameter and thickness together. A holder that accepts the diameter can still fail to retain an optic that is thinner than its minimum, and clear aperture is normally smaller than the optic the mount holds.
How does the CSP1-RMS mount?
Post Mounting: M4. 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.
What is the CSP1-RMS made from?
