R2 metal implantation system
An all-in-one solution for handling, storing and implanting probes with R2drives and R2rails. The micromachined stainless-steel holder replaces the original 3D-printed design with a smaller footprint, a stronger grip and better carrier alignment, and transfers easily between the storage case and a stereotax attachment. It protects probes through the whole research cycle — assembly, storage, implantation surgery and recovery. The heavy-duty aluminium storage & assembly case has a removable transparent window so you can fasten a probe without disassembly, plus a modular basket system for different connector types.
Recommended with this product
At least one R2 stereotactic adapter is needed to attach the R2 metal holder to a stereotactic apparatus for surgeries and acute experiments.
