Attach a 66 mm Rail Horizontally Along a Breadboard or Optical Table
Four Counterbored Mounting Slots for 1/4"-20 or M6 Cap Screws

The XT66P3 Horizontal Mounting Plate allows 66 mm optical rail constructions to be mounted on top of a breadboard or another 1/4"-20 (M6) compatible assembly. The top-located clamp tightens around the rail once it has been slid into its desired position and is secured by two spring-loaded M4 cap screws.

The counterbored slots at the corners of the mounting plate make it easier to align the rail with the tapped hole array on an imperial or metric breadboard.
