SPINE standard pin
Appropriate pins are:
- Molecular Dimensions CryoCaps
- MiTeGen B5 and MiTeGen B5-R Goniometer Bases
- Hampton CrystalCap HT SPINE pin. We recommend to avoid 2D bar coding as the white painting reduces the goniometer holding force.
Please avoid putting stickers at the base of the magnetic bases which reduces the magnet strength.
