The Schott A08400 Single Gooseneck Fiber Optic Light Guide (18") is a precision flex-and-stay single-arm gooseneck light guide designed for Schott KL series and ColdVision cold light sources — delivering directed, focused cold light illumination with an 18-inch gooseneck arm that holds its position precisely after adjustment for consistent, repeatable specimen lighting.

KEY FEATURES

  • 18" (457mm) flex-and-stay gooseneck arm — holds its position precisely after adjustment without drift, enabling repeatable illumination setups across extended work sessions
  • Single-arm directed illumination for focused, targeted cold light delivery to a specific area of the specimen or work surface
  • Compatible with Schott KL series and ColdVision cold light sources via standard M6-threaded connection for integration with weighted bases, articulated arms, and stands
  • Cold light (IR-free) illumination — no heat at the specimen, protecting heat-sensitive biological specimens, materials, and components
  • 🇩🇪 Schott quality, made in Germany — precision fiber optic construction for consistent, high-efficiency light transmission and long service life
  • New — part number A08400

Product Overview

The Schott A08400 is an 18-inch single gooseneck fiber optic light guide — the workhorse single-arm illumination accessory for Schott KL series and ColdVision cold light source systems. The flex-and-stay gooseneck construction allows the arm to be bent and positioned freely in three dimensions, then holds its position precisely without drift — ensuring the illumination angle and intensity at the specimen remain consistent throughout the work session without constant readjustment. The single-arm configuration delivers directed, focused cold light to a specific area, making it ideal for targeted specimen illumination in stereo microscopy, dissection, inspection, and precision assembly. The standard M6-threaded connection integrates with Schott weighted bases (158.340), articulated arms (A08506), and standard M6 laboratory stands for flexible mounting configurations. Cold light output protects heat-sensitive biological specimens, materials, and electronic components from IR heat damage during extended illumination. Supplied new from stock, part number A08400.
