Olympus U-6RE 6 Position BX Microscope Nosepiece

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.
