Ultra SLIM Pincer for flag style plates - for Omicron LT AFM

Product code: PGWMS(OMUSLIMLTA)

The PGWMS(OMUSLIMLTA) has the appropriate groove to fetch flag style sample plates. It is especially designed to grab and release  the AFM tip mounted on the Omicron LT-SPM's Tip carrier. A gap between the jaws allows for squeezing the tip holder, thereby releasing it from it's seat on the carrier. Releasing the jaws again within the seat, the tip holder regains it's firm fit.

The narrow head of the PGWMS(OMUSLIMLTA) offers better visibility of the sample plate and AFM tip holder. The symmetrically opening and particularly slim jaws are predefined for use where little space is available.

For ultimately precise and safe handling, we recommend the PGWMS(OMUSLIMLTA) be used in combination with a fine adjuster coupling equipped dual shaft wobblestick WMG40(FC)-XXXX-YYYY.
