PELCO^® Black Metal Slides

813-535

Black metal slides for metallographic mount support. These matt black anodized aluminum metal support slides are ideal to support metallographic samples , cross sections and mounts for reflective light microscopy. Use PELCO® Plast Support Putty (Product No. 813-530) between sample and slide and Sample Leveling Press (shown below) to level the sample. Size is 3" x 1" x 1/16" (76.2 x 25.4 x 1.6mm), sold in packs of 5.

Metallographic Sample Leveling Press

813-540

The metallographic sample leveling press is used to level sample on the metal slides. Use PELCO® Plast Support Putty (shown below) between metal slide and back of the sample; use PELCO® Optical Lens Tissue (Product No. 806) between leveling press and sample surface to avoid damaging sample surface. Spring loaded plunger diameter 1-1/2" (38mm).
