The KM100T by ThorLabs is a high-quality kinematic mirror mount designed for precise optical positioning. The KM100T features a durable SM1-threaded design, making it compatible with a wide range of components for seamless integration into an optical setup.
One of the key features of the KM100T is its versatility in accommodating thin Ø1" optics up to 0.14" (3.5 mm) thick. The mounting hole securely holds the optic in place with two SM1RR SM1 (1.035"-40) threaded retaining rings, which can be easily attached using a spanner wrench for quick and hassle-free installation. The KM100T is also designed to be compatible with both imperial and metric threaded Ø1/2" mounting posts via #8 (M4) counterbored through holes, allowing for flexible mounting options. It can be attached to the post in a right-handed, left-handed, or upward-facing orientation to suit the specific needs of the user.
For precise adjustments, the KM100T features two 1/4"-80 adjusters that allow for tip and tilt adjustments. The knobs on the mount are removable, exposing hex sockets in the lead adjuster screws for easy adjustments. Once the desired position is reached, the adjusters can be locked in place using a compatible bronze locking nut for added stability. In addition, the KM100T offers an impressive angular adjustment range of ±4°, providing ample flexibility for precise positioning of an optic. This ensures that the user can achieve optimal alignment and performance in an optical setup.
