Description

New Old Stock (NOS) | Factory Sealed | Precision Microscopy Component

Available for purchase is a genuine SPI Supplies Platinum Disc Aperture with a precision-drilled 40-micrometer (40µm) hole. This is a critical consumable for high-resolution electron microscopy, used to refine the electron beam and reduce spherical aberration.

Technical Highlights:

High-Purity Platinum: The disc is crafted from premium platinum, allowing it to withstand high-intensity electron beams and undergo "flaming" (thermal cleaning) without degrading.

K-Series Configuration: This aperture features the 3.04 mm (0.120") outer diameter, making it specifically compatible with Philips, FEI, Thermo Fisher, and Amray electron microscopes (SEM/TEM).

Performance: The 40µm hole size provides an excellent balance between signal strength and image resolution, ideal for standard imaging protocols.

Condition Note:

This item is New Old Stock (NOS) and remains in its original protective yellow holder and sealed plastic pouch. It has never been opened or exposed to atmospheric dust or skin oils, ensuring it is vacuum-ready and free of contaminants.

Note: Due to the delicate nature of this scientific component, please ensure compatibility with your specific microscope model before purchasing.
