New Lightweight Optical Breadboard, Extruded Core, 30 x 48 x 2.3 in., 1/4-20 Threads

Our patent-pending extruded aluminum core design makes Newport lightweight optical breadboards up to 30% lighter than standard honeycomb breadboards without compromising performance. The LW Series is ideal for less sensitive applications, offering easier handling, transport, and assembly. Its reduced weight also minimizes the load on isolators, enabling a higher payload capacity atop the breadboard.

Newport’s Lightweight optical breadboards are engineered for applications where portability and ease of handling are essential. They offer reduced weight and deliver damping performance that approaches that of the SG Series, which provides greater stiffness for long-term stability in vibration-critical setups. The Lightweight Series is well suited for less sensitive environments.
