Ideal Spectroscopy Ball Swivel Feedthrough, 35° Angular Adjustment, CF 4.5 in. to CF 2.75 in.
The Ideal Spectroscopy Ball Swivel Feedthrough is a CF 4.5 in. to CF 2.75 in. vacuum coupler featuring a ball-and-socket joint that provides angular adjustment. Designed to simplify alignment challenges in complex opto-vacuum systems, the feedthrough provides up to 35° of angular adjustment to accommodate misalignment between system components. This allows precise optical or beamline positioning without modifying the existing system, replacing numerous components, or requiring custom welding.
The assembly mounts securely to a CF 4.5 in. flange, while the swiveling side terminates in a CF 2.75 in. flange. This configuration provides an adjustable interface between fixed vacuum ports and optical or beamline components where precise alignment and mechanical flexibility are critical.
