🔬 Olympus U-6RE 6-position revolving nosepiece for Olympus BX, GX, and MX series upright microscopes⚡ 6 objective positions — full complement of objectives available for manual selection across the complete magnification range🎯 Strain-free (POL-compatible) design — suitable for polarized light microscopy applications requiring strain-free optical components in the objective path🏭 Made in Japan by Olympus — guaranteed OEM fit and smooth, click-stop rotation on BX, GX, and MX series platforms✅ SKU U-6RE / Cat. U-R106 — new condition, compatible with all BX, GX, and MX series microscopes 🔧 Product Description The Olympus U-6RE is a 6-position manual revolving nosepiece for Olympus BX, GX, and MX series upright microscopes, providing six objective positions for manual selection across the full magnification range. The nosepiece features positive click-stop detents at each position for precise, repeatable objective centering, and is built to Olympus factory specifications (catalog number U-R106) for guaranteed OEM fit and smooth rotation on BX, GX, and MX series stands. The U-6RE is a strain-free nosepiece, making it suitable for polarized light microscopy applications where strain-free optical components in the objective path are required to avoid introducing unwanted birefringence artifacts. With six positions, the U-6RE accommodates a full set of objectives — for example, 4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 60x, and 100x — without requiring objective changes between positions. Compatible with all BX, GX, and MX series microscopes. This unit is in new condition. 🔎 Typical Applications Routine brightfield microscopy on BX, GX, or MX series — 6-position manual nosepiece for full magnification range access without objective swapping Polarized light microscopy — strain-free design for POL applications requiring artifact-free objective path components Phase contrast and DIC — 6-position nosepiece for multi-contrast transmitted light workflows on BX and MX series Fluorescence microscopy — 6-position objective selection for multi-magnification fluorescence imaging on BX series Replacement or upgrade nosepiece for existing BX, GX, or MX series microscopes requiring a new 6-position manual revolving nosepiece 📊 Key Specifications Specification Details Olympus Part Number U-6RE (U-R106) Type Manual Revolving Nosepiece Objective Positions 6 POL Compatibility Strain-free — suitable for polarized light microscopy Compatible Microscopes All Olympus BX, GX, and MX series Country of Origin Japan HS Code 901190 Condition New / OEM Universities and research institutions are welcome to purchase using an official purchase order.
