Skip to the beginning of the images gallery

The 12.7-mm (0.5-in.) Top-Adjust MHX-T series mirror mounts are all-stainless steel and feature adjustments that are conveniently accessible from the top of the mount. They are designed with a hollow frame that not only provides a higher moment of inertia to maximize stiffness but also thinner, reduced-mass sections, allowing it to reach thermal equilibrium faster than traditionally designed mounts. The hollow frame also serves to protect the front plate from being knocked from its kinematic points. Thermal repeatability tests validate the effectiveness of the new frame design, showing lower deflection and equivalent repeatability against rival mounts. The MHX mount is loaded with additional features like center-post mounting, adhesive wells, and vented keying pin slots, all in the most compact and affordable stainless steel mount. Locks are available but sold separately. Please note: This mount uses a special (Nissan) small head-diameter caphead screw for mounting, and therefore, standard 8-32 and M4 screws won't work. Special, small head-diameter screws (8-32 and M4) are included with the mount.

Details

Please note: This mount utilizes a special small-head diameter screw for mounting. The 6mm counterbore is sized for a 5.5mm head diameter socket head cap screw. An 8-32 and an M4 screw of this type are included with the mount. Standard 8-32 and an M4 socket head cap screws will not fit the counterbore.
