Our Angle Blocks can be used to orient mounts at various fixed angles (4°, 8°, 16°, 24°, 30°, 32°, 40°, or 45°). Two versions are available for attaching mirror mounts and other optomechanical components: one has an 8-32 (M4) tap, while the other has a #8 (M4) counterbore. These blocks mount directly to our Ø1/2" and Ø1" (Ø25 mm) posts via the bottom-located 8-32 (M4) tapped hole. These angle blocks are manufactured from black-anodized aluminum and are engraved with the part number for easy identification of the angle.

Response from Buki at Thorlabs to acable:
Thank you for participating in our feedback forum. You raise a valid point and we have passed this on to our production team. Depending on what you want to mount at 45 degrees, there may be a few alternative solutions for you to consider in the short term:
1. MA45-2 - 45° Mounting Adapter, on which you can mount our KM100 or KM200 mirror mount
2. H45B2 - 45° Optic Holder for 1" diameter optics

Seems like you stopped short of the most useful angle, can you add a 45 degree design.

Thank you for participating in our feedback forum. The angle blocks are made from aluminum, which is non-magnetic. This information is included in the bottom right corner of the drawing linked below:

Could you tell me what materials are used in these? We have an application for which we need non-magnetic parts. Thanks.
