The "HG50-58/70-58" is a very useful thin adhesive sheet for fixing samples on the stage of a microscope. The grip sheet itself is not adhesive, so it does not leave any residue on the object. It can be easily removed. Depending on the application, we offer two types with different grip strengths. It is effective for fixing glass, wafers, substrates, films, and metal mirror samples. The sheet is made of a transparent material, which does not hinder the light intensity required for transmitted lighting environments to check for foreign substances within the resin. Additionally, the moderate elasticity provides shock absorption, preventing damage to hard tools while allowing for a gentle contact with the object. 【Features】 - Effective for fixing glass, wafers, substrates, films, and metal mirror samples - The sheet is made of transparent material, so it does not hinder light intensity in transmitted lighting environments - Shock absorption due to moderate elasticity - Two types with different grip strengths available, etc. *For more details, please contact us via the link below.
