Zeiss Plan-Apochromat 63x/1.4 Oil Immersion Objective (NA 1.40, Infinity, RMS)

The Zeiss Plan-Apochromat 63×/1.4 Oil Immersion Objective (RMS) is the legacy RMS thread version of Zeiss’s flagship 63× plan apochromat — delivering NA 1.40 oil immersion with full plan apochromat correction for older Zeiss microscopes with RMS nosepieces including Axioskop, Axiovert, and Axioplan series. Offered here in excellent condition with flawless optics at significant savings versus the list price.

• 🔬 NA 1.40 oil immersion — maximum numerical aperture for oil immersion objectives, delivering the highest resolution and fluorescence light collection for demanding confocal, TIRF, and super-resolution imaging
• 🌟 Plan apochromat correction — Zeiss’s highest level of chromatic and spherical aberration correction for accurate multi-channel fluorescence co-localization and brilliant flat-field imaging across the full visible spectrum
• 🔧 RMS thread mount — the legacy Zeiss RMS thread format, compatible with older Zeiss Axioskop, Axiovert, and Axioplan series microscopes with RMS nosepieces; not compatible with current M27 nosepieces without an adapter
• 🇩🇪 Zeiss quality, made in Germany — precision optical construction for consistent, high-efficiency light transmission and long service life
• ✅ Condition: Excellent — flawless optics — catalog number 1113-106

🔧 Product Description

The Zeiss Plan-Apochromat 63×/1.4 Oil RMS is the legacy RMS thread version of Zeiss’s benchmark 63× plan apochromat objective — optically identical in performance to the current M27 version but with the older RMS thread mount used on Zeiss Axioskop, Axiovert, and Axioplan series microscopes. For labs running these older Zeiss platforms, this objective provides the full plan apochromat optical performance — NA 1.40 oil immersion, flat-field correction, and apochromat chromatic registration across all fluorescence channels — at a significant discount to the current M27 version. At NA 1.40, this objective delivers the maximum resolution and fluorescence light collection available in oil immersion, making it the definitive choice for high-resolution confocal, TIRF, single-molecule, and super-resolution imaging on compatible Zeiss systems. The plan apochromat correction ensures accurate chromatic registration across all fluorescence channels, essential for multi-color co-localization, FRET, and any imaging workflow where chromatic shift between channels would compromise data integrity. This unit is offered in excellent condition with flawless optics at a significant discount to the list price of $5,600. Catalog number 1113-106.

🔎 Typical Applications

• High-resolution confocal and multi-photon fluorescence microscopy on Zeiss Axioskop/Axiovert/Axioplan
• TIRF and single-molecule imaging requiring maximum NA
• Super-resolution microscopy: PALM, STORM, STED, and SIM
• Multi-channel fluorescence co-localization and FRET experiments
• Subcellular imaging of organelles, protein localization, and membrane dynamics
• Any lab with legacy Zeiss RMS nosepiece microscopes requiring plan apochromat performance
