Stub stands and preparation pods

Micro to Nano EM-Tec preparation pods and SEM stub stands provide convenient preparation pods and stands designed for secure handling of SEM stubs and to avoid confusion when preparing multiple SEM stubs. A preparation pod enables pin stubs to be held in the correct position when applying the specimen to the stub.  For JEOL and Hitachi cylinder stubs the EM-Tec stub stands provide a way to handle and transport multiple stubs.
