Overview
Our spring-loaded optical filter mounts do not require tools to secure or change your optical filter, and they can be stacked to provide a wide variety of filtering options. The mounts hold individual filters firmly in place, accommodate round or square filters, and offer a wide variety of post mounting options. The FH-1S and FH-2S use a three-sided, spring-loaded, v-groove clamp that allows quick and easy interchange of the optical filter by simply squeezing the lower portion of the spring-loaded Delrin arm.
Easy Filter Exchange
Our FH-1S and FH-2S Optical Filter Holders use a three-sided, spring-loaded, v-groove clamp to still allow for quick and easy interchange of the optical filter. Simply squeeze on the lower portion of the spring-loaded Delrin arm and insert the filter, and when the arm is released, the filter will be held firmly in place.
Post Mounting Options
The FH-1S, FH-2S and 9861 Filter Holders incorporate an 8-32 (M4) counterbored hole in the center of the base, allowing for easy post mounting with a variety of posts and pedestals.
