Features

Mounts Optics Ranging from Ø1/2" (Ø13 mm) to Ø3.5" (Ø89 mm)
Optic Groove 0.28" (7 mm) Wide
V-Clamp Design Firmly Secures Optic
Simple One-Handed Operation

This easy-to-operate optic clamp securely holds optics ranging in size from Ø1/2" (Ø13 mm) to Ø3.5" (Ø89 mm) up to 0.28" (7 mm) thick. The guillotine operation of the top plate allows for quick height adjustment for varying sized optics. Conveniently located in the top plate is a fastening screw with a swiveling V-shaped Delrin^®* tip that provides locking force to the optic. The post-mountable base is machined with a dual-action V-groove for extra stability. The overall thin profile of the mount makes it ideal for compact optomechanical structures. For holding optical components thicker than 0.28" (7 mm), please consider one of our other V-Mounts.

We have a 100mm round optic... jlow (posted 2017-02-27 11:42:53.0) Response from Jeremy at Thorlabs: We have the LMR100(/M), which can be found at https://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=1433, to mount 100mm optic.
