These Prism Mounts are designed to accommodate our Glan Laser, Glan Taylor, and Rutile Polarizing Prisms. To place the prism in the mount, unscrew the rotating cover and secure the prism in place by tightening the setscrew on the side. The rotating cover also allows the user to block the two side ports when they are not required.

The SM1PM10 and SM1PM15 housings feature external SM1(1.035"-40) threading, while the SM05PM5 housing features external SM05 (0.535"-40) threading. These threadings make the prism mounts directly compatible with our manual, motorized, high precision, or cage system rotation mounts.

The PRM05GL5 and PRM1GL10 are bundled packages that include either our SM05PM5 or SM1PM10 prism mount and a 1/2" (PRM05) or 1" (PRM1) High Precision Rotation Mount, respectively.

Can the actuator be replaced with any of your motorized models?

Thanks for reaching out to Thorlabs. The stock micrometer used on the PRM1GL10 and 1/2" version have too small of a barrel to adapt to our other motorized options. You can instead obtain the Lens Tube mount SM1PM10 and attach this to our motorized version of the PRM1 mount, the PRM1Z8. The 1/2" versions could be attached with an SM1A6 adapter to fit the SM1 threads on the motorized version.

Would it possible to mount PBS101 to SM1PM10 mounts? Thanks Anitta

Hello Anitta, thank you for contacting Thorlabs. The SM1PM10 cannot be used to mount the PBS101 since the mount is designed for our mounted polarizing prisms, which have a height of 15.9mm.

Would it be possible to mount a MRA15-E02 15mm 45° mirror? Thank you very much, Bassem Salem

Thank you for contacting Thorlabs. The SM1PM10 can be used to mount 15mm right angle prisms such as MRA15-E02. The internal clearance for the height of the prism is about 16.12mm which is compensated by using the adjustable setscrew. The SM1PM15 is too large to mount a 15mm right angle prism. Please note that the clearance holes are not intended for a 90 degree turn of your beam so only small diameter beams can be used with this prism mount.

I want to know about dimension of inner size (mount position) when it is disassembled as CAD pdf.

Response from Bweh at Thorlabs USA: I will provide these dimensions to you by email.

Dear ladies and gentlemen, I am planing to use a laser polarizer just to control the laser power. Therefore it would be helpful if the other polarized beam, which is reflected at the interface between the prism is blocked by the mounts. Do you have something for this application? Of course the material should survive the laser radiation. Best regards André Klossek

Response from Jeremy at Thorlabs: The cover on the lens tube mount can be rotated so you can block the unwanted beam.

We have added all the missing drawings and apologize for the inconvenience of not having them readily available.
