Tube Hinge Clamp for 1.50 in. OD Tubes, 8-32 Socket Head Screw, 8-32 Post-Mountable
These aluminum hinge clamps provide a simple and secure way to mount 1.50-inch OD tubes in optical, laboratory, and experimental setups. The hinged design allows the clamp to open for easy placement of the tube and then close around it for secure positioning.
The tube is secured by closing the clamp and tightening the included 8-32 socket head screw using a 5/32-inch Allen wrench. This design makes it easy to install, remove, or reposition tubing without requiring the tube to be inserted through the clamp from the end.
A bottom 8-32 mounting hole allows the hinge clamp to be attached to a standard 1/2-inch optical post. This provides a convenient way to position and support tubing above an optical breadboard, optical table, or other experimental mounting surface.
These hinge clamps are available in a variety of sizes for tubes ranging from 0.50 to 2.50 inches OD.
