Adjustable-Arm Benchtop Microscopes
Reposition these microscopes without moving the base. The head rotates 360°. They’re safe to use where electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a concern.
Use with both objective lenses and eyepieces to increase magnification up to 225X.
Microscope illuminators add 360° of shadow-free light.

Benchtop Microscopes
Illuminate your sample from above, below, or both—these microscopes have an upper and lower light that you can turn on together or separately. They’re safe to use where electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a concern.
Use with both objective lenses and eyepieces to increase magnification up to 225X.
Microscope illuminators give 360° of additional shadow-free light.

Microscope Illuminators
Shine 360° of shadow-free light on objects under microscopes to make defects more visible during inspections. The even lighting these illuminators produce reduces glare and creates strong visual contrast between small components, such as parts on circuit boards.
LED illuminators use less energy, produce less heat, and last longer than fluorescent illuminators. Ultraviolet LED illuminators expose defects such as cracks and holes in parts when used with fluorescent dye or powder. They’re often used for leak detection and quality control testing.
ESD-safe illuminators have a coating that dissipates static electricity, preventing damage if they make contact with sensitive components during inspections.
Illuminators that cannot be sold to Canada are restricted by local regulatory limits on mercury content.

Hand-Held Video Microscopes
View the images you capture on an external monitor. These microscopes magnify images, snap high-resolution images, and record video for quality control and material inspection. They come with software and a USB cable that attaches to your computer.

Compact Illuminated Microscopes
Take the powerful magnification of a standard microscope on the go—these microscopes fit in your pocket. To help you see fine details, they come with a bright LED light that illuminates the surface you’re inspecting.
Microscopes with an adjustable focus let you change their magnification, so you can use one tool for different jobs. The lower the magnification, the larger your field of view; the higher the magnification, the smaller the details you’ll be able to see.
Microscopes with a fixed focus have an internal scale on the eyepiece to precisely measure items up to 4 mm long.

Miniature LED Adjustable-Arm Lights
Though not as bright as our miniature fiber-optic lights, these lights have built-in LEDs that last longer, are more efficient, and are more affordable. Use them to illuminate small and microscopic parts. They have a daylight appearance that highlights white/blue tones, which is good for inspecting.

Miniature Fiber-Optic Adjustable-Arm Lights
Create a high-intensity lighting system for inspecting small and microscopic parts. To create a complete lighting system, you need a fiber-optic light, fiber-optic cable, and an adapter to connect the cable to the light. They cast a neutral white light often found in workspaces.
Add a probe to 1/8" dia. fiber-optic cables to illuminate small areas that have recessed or deep orifices.
Pair a focusing lens with a positionable cable to create a concentrated beam of light on your work.
