Thread-To-Thread Adapters are key components when building a Benchtop Optical System. Optomechanic components feature a wide range of threads, so these adapters are an important addition to any optical lab space. M6 to 1/4”-20 adapters are used to change between English and metric configurations whereas 8-32 to 1/4”-20 adapters and Thread-To-Thread Adapters for M16 x 1.0 threaded components are ideal for a variety of mounting systems including our Leadscrew Drive Stages and Metric Rotary Stages. For male to male thread adapters designed for out TECHSPEC® Optical Mounting Posts, please use TECHSPEC® Thread Adapters.
