Individual force holders allow one or more samples to be prepared simultaneously. The advantage of individual preparation is that it allows removal of any number of samples from the grinding/polishing operation without affecting balance of the system. It is also ideal for applications where small geometry and site-specific cross-section requirements make alignment of more than three (3) samples to a common plane extremely challenging.

Fixed Diameter Mount Holders
Recommended for a specific mount diameter.

Variable Diameter Mount Holders
Recommended for multiple mount diameters. Utilizes spacer rings for specific diameter mounts that can be mixed or matched for maximum versatility.
The three (3) position holder is for the PH-3™ power head.
The four (4) position holder is for the PH-4™ power head.
The six (6) position holder is for the PH-6™ power head.
Rings are sold separately.

Central force holders secure mounts/samples on a common plane. A minimum of three (3) samples must be prepared at once for balance. Custom shapes and sizes are available. 

Teardrop holders allow flexibility in the shape and size of the sample that can be held. A setscrew secures each sample.

Dual-cavity holders feature a single tightening point, which is useful for rapid insertion and removal of either one or two round or irregular shaped specimens per cavity. 

Sample loading fixtures are used to set the sample protrusion from the holder at an equal distance for grinding/polishing to the same plane. Uniform, symmetric arrangement around the central drive adapter is necessary.
