A Complete Line of SEM Mounts, Stubs and Planchets
SPI Supplies offers a wide variety of SEM Mounts, Stubs and Planchets for all your sample preparation needs.
Several aluminum mount finishes are available:
- Lathe: Our standard product, economically priced, made from an aluminum alloy that is specially selected for its machinability and which provides a relatively smooth surface. Excellent when a substrate is needed for use with carbon tapes and discs.
- Luster: Our tumbled finish, giving a very smooth surface that can be used with or without tapes and paints.
- Polished: Our high quality polished finished, down to 0.1um. Excellent for when needing a very smooth surface without tapes.
Available in a number of styles (cylindrical, pin mount, angled), sizes and diameters.
