Features
- Shelves for Holding Tools and Equipment
- Brackets for Mounting Solid Aluminum Breadboards
- Mount Directly to Ø1.5" Posts Without Having to Remove Previously Placed Accessories
Thorlabs offers several Ø1.5" post-mountable shelving options that allow a user to place instruments or tools above or around the work surface. A hinged-clamp design, shown to the right, attaches directly to any point along the length of a Ø1.5" post without the need to remove previously mounted items. This allows our modular shelving options to be selectively added when the need arises, allowing for a fully customizable workspace.
Shelves are available from 300 mm wide to 1256 mm wide and are all constructed from durable melamine-faced, medium-density fiberboard (MDF). Steel racks with Linbins™ and component trays are also available to hold smaller tools and equipment. A steel breadboard bracket is provided to support solid aluminum breadboards up to 300 mm x 300 mm in size.

Locking Clamp Positioned Under Our PSY321 Breadboard Mounting Bracket, Holding it in Place and Allowing for Free Rotation of the Bracket
- Retain the Position of Ø1.5" Post Mounted Accessories
- Hinged Clamp Design Allows for Installation Without Removing Existing Shelves
Thorlabs PSY322 Hinged Locking Clamps are the ideal solution for preventing the unwanted movement of accessories along the axis of the post. Locking the clamp in place (5 mm hex key included) directly under a post-mounted accessory, as shown to the right, prevents the accessory from sliding down the post when it is loosened for adjustments. This also allows mounted shelving or brackets to be freely rotated around the axis of the post to a needed position at any time.
