EM-Tec multiple stub holders for Hitachi cylinder SEM stubs

EM-Tec multiple stub holders are an economical and pragmatic way to load multiple Hitachi specimen stubs with an M4 thread into the SEM.  Using multiple stub holders saves time, allows multi sample processing or allows for quickly comparing samples against each other. The following types are offered:

• EM-Tec H3 multiple stub holders for 3 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs
• EM-Tec H3Lmultiple stub holders for 3 x Ø25mm Hitachi cylinder stubs
• EM-Tec H6 multiple stub holders for 6 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs
• EM-Tec H3/45 45° multiple stub holder for 3 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs
• EM-Tec H3/45R 45° multiple stub holder for 3 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs with adjustable rotation
• EM-Tec H6/45 45° multiple stub holder for 6 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs
• EM-Tec H6/45R 45° multiple stub holder for 6 x Ø15mm Hitachi cylinder stubs with adjustable rotation

The horizontal multi stub holders are based on the Ø25 x 6mm x M4 and the Ø50mm x 6mm x M4 Hitachi stubs to hold multiple stubs on M4 screws. The 45° multiple holders allow for a 45° pre-tilt which is beneficial for table top SEMs w/o a stage tilt or to quickly image under 45° w/o having to tilt the SEM stage. 45° tilted imaging tends to give a higher SE signal and reveals more of the topography of the specimen surface. The EM-Tec 45° multi stub holders are offered in two versions:

• Fixed M4 threaded screws to hold the Hitachi stubs
• Adjustable rotation M4 threaded screws allow for individual rotation of the Hitachi stubs to optimize viewing angle for the sample area
