RS1.5P1" diameter, 1.5" long Pedestal Pillar Post with 1/4" - 20 taps and 2 more items

ThorLabs Inc has been awarded contract A207_PO-0445242-V3 by the University of Virginia on August 8, 2026, for the procurement of optical mounting and laboratory equipment components. The contract carries a cumulative value of $308 and encompasses the delivery of three distinct product lines: 123 units of RS1.5P1" diameter pedestal pillar posts (1.5" long with 1/4"-20 taps), 80 units of MB412 aluminum breadboards (4" x 12" x 1/2" with 1/4"-20 taps), and 104 units of MB4 aluminum breadboards (4" x 6" x 1/2" with 1/4"-20 taps). All items are to be delivered to the buyer, with unit pricing established at $1 per item.

This contract, executed in Virginia, represents a procurement of optical bench and mounting hardware components typically utilized in laboratory and scientific research applications. The standardized aluminum breadboards with threaded tap configurations support modular optical system assembly, while the pedestal pillars serve as structural supports within optical mounting systems. The relatively modest contract value and specified quantities suggest this award addresses immediate component requirements for the University of Virginia's laboratory operations or research initiatives.
