Microscope Accessories and Replacement Parts
General accessories and parts for use with microscopes. Products include lens oil, lens cleaner, slide dispensers, microscope covers, vessel holders, light cubes, and flow cells.
Many parts of your microscope can be updated or replaced including microscope lamps, lenses, and eyepieces. Replacement lamps, light sources, and power cords can extend the working lives of your microscopy equipment. New or replacement objectives and lenses can help increase the total magnification available with your microscope.
Add greater magnification or exchange your eyepiece for one with a reticule to more easily estimate the sizes of the items being viewed.
Replace or update your mechanical stage or clamps or add cell culture vessel adapters to facilitate specimen positioning.
Condensers can also be replaced, and conversion kits are available to add phase contrast, polarization, fluorescence, or other capabilities to your current system.
Some microscopes can be adapted for use with still or video cameras. Look for cameras and adapters designed for your specific microscope brand. Film and documentation-related products may also be available to support your record-keeping.
Temporary, semi-permanent, and more long-term slide storage options include:
- Slide racks that securely hold slides during staining procedures
- Folding fiberboard or plastic slide holders with horizontal indentations that keep microscope slides in place
- Slide storage boxes with vertical dividers; made from fiberboard, plastic, and wood and available in multiple sizes
- Slide holders and mailers for transporting slides safely
- Slide storage systems and cabinets for large quantities of slides or archival storage

Electron Microscopy Sciences Maxtaform London Finder Grid, 400 mesh Copper, 63 µm Pitch
Maxtaform grids with reference patterns are of the highest consistent quality.
Material: Copper
Pitch: 63 µm
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Platinum Aperture with 20 µm hole, 0.24 mm thick
Platinum apertures are easily cleaned by either an aperture flamer or over a bunsen burner in the open air. We maintain a wide variety of Platinum Drilled Apertures in stock with different configurations suiting all of your needs. Nominal hole diameter: +/- 1 micron. Disc diameter: +/- 10 microns. Disc thickness: +/- 10 microns
Size: 20 µm
O.D.: 3 mm
Thickness: 0.24 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Gold Aperture with 15 µm hole, 2 mm O.D., 0.53 mm thick
Advanced techniques of thin metal film application permits the apertures to retain a clean hole edge during prolonged beam exposure. Ultra-thin, half-micron design discourages contaminant accumulation and stabilizes astigmatic conditions to provide longer life. Conventional mechanical cleaning involving costly down-time is no longer necessary. Because the foil is ultra thin, care must be taken when handling the gold foil apertures.
Size: 15 µm
O.D.: 2 mm
Thickness: 0.53 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Coates & Welter SEM Mount 3/4" Head, 3/8 " Pin diameter, Aluminum
Coates & Welter aluminum specimen mounts for scanning electron microscopes.
Head: 3/4"
Pin diameter: 3/8"
Electron Microscopy Sciences Metallurgical Graticle G42, 21mm, ASTM E112
Standard pattern discs for metallurgical stereometric analysis of grain size in polished metal sections. Grain sizing (E112), Glass Sandwich.
Size: 21mm

Electron Microscopy Sciences MicroMounts™ Crystal Tool with 150 µm Aperture and 11 mm pin
MicroMounts are the high performance tools for manipulating and mounting protein crystals, virus crystals, and small molecule/inorganic crystals, and other small, fragile samples. They are ideal for both conventional and high-throughput X-ray crystallography applications.
Each consist of a thin (7.5um thick) micro-fabricated polyimide film, attached to a solid non-magnetic stainless steel pin. Film is wrapped around the steel pin and it provides excellent stiffness and convenient scoop-like action in retrieving and handling crystals.
Aperture: 11 mm pin
Electron Microscopy Sciences Shorter Pin SEM Stub Slotted 2-1/2" Head, 6 mm Pin, Aluminum, 3.2 mm Pin diameter
SEM specimen mount with shorter pin and slotted head for use with all Zeiss/LEO SEM, FESEM & FIB systems. Made from ultra-pure aluminum with a standard lathe finish.
Head: 2.5"
Pin height: 6 mm
Pin diameter: 3.2 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences PremaDisk Diamond Grinding Disc SH Hard Bond, 30 µm Particles, 200 mm diameter
PremaDisk Flexible Diamond Grinding Discs offer superior surface finishes that are usually only seen in lapping processes.
The SM disc is a medium-hard resin bond base for fine grinding and polishing of metals, ceramics and glass.
The SH disc is a hard resin bond base for applications where a very sharp edge must be maintained on the workpiece.
Both discs increase productivity by combining optimum surface quality, removal rates, and tool life in the same process.
Particles: 30 µm
Diameter: 200 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences C-Flat™ Holey Carbon Grid CF-2/1-2C, 200 mesh Cu
C-flat is an ultra-flat, holey carbon-coated support grid for transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Unlike competing holey carbon films, C-flat is manufactured without plastics, so it is clean upon arrival and the user has no residue to contend with. Made with patent pending technology, C-flat provides an ultra-flat surface that results in better particle dispersion and more uniform ice thickness.
Patterning is done using deep-UV projection lithography, ensuring the most accurate and consistent hole shapes and sizes down to submicron features. The precise methods by which C-flat is manufactured elminate artifacts such as excess carbon and edges around holes.
C-flat holey carbon grids provide the ideal specimen support to achieve high resolution data in making them an ideal choice for cryo single particle analysis, cryo tomography and automated TEM analysis. 2.0 µm holes with 1.0 µm spacing.
Mesh: 200
Material: Copper
