Aven Tools 26800B-373-5 SPZ-50 Binocular Stereo Zoom Microscope, 6.7x–50x, with Articulating Arm & LED Ring Light
Aven Tools 26800B-373-5 SPZ-50 Binocular Stereo Zoom Microscope, 6.7x–50x, with Articulating Arm & LED Ring Light
The Aven 26800B-373-5 combines an SPZ-50 binocular stereo zoom microscope with a standard articulating-arm stand, heavy-duty table clamp and illuminated E-Arm focus mount. The included 10x eyepieces provide 6.7x–50x optical magnification, while the articulating arm lets you position the microscope across a large working area and move it aside when not in use. An integrated 60-LED ring light and variable dimmer control support detailed inspection.
At the bench, bring the microscope over the part, adjust coarse and fine focus, and set the illumination to reveal the feature you need to examine. When the task is finished, move the arm out of the way to reclaim working space.
Best Uses / Applications
- Visual inspection across larger working areas requiring flexible microscope positioning.
- Shared benches where moving the microscope aside creates usable workspace.
- Small-part examination with stereo optical viewing and 108 mm working distance.
- Bench-edge mounting using the included heavy-duty table clamp.
- Precision visual inspection needing coarse/fine focus and adjustable ring illumination.
Key Features
- SPZ-50 binocular stereo zoom body with 6.7x–50x included magnification.
- Greenough optics and 7.46:1 zoom ratio.
- Two 10x FN23 eyepieces with 17 mm high eye point and 45° inclined tubes.
- 360° rotatable body, dual diopter adjustment and adjustable interpupillary distance.
- All-metal standard articulating arm 26800B-560 with heavy-duty table clamp.
- Focus mount with coarse/fine adjustment and integrated 60-LED ring light.
- Lighting power/control box with variable dimming.

Source clarifications: Aven's title uses 6.75x–50x, while detailed copy and optical tables state 6.7x–50x. The specification heading references 26200B-207 and an arbor, while the system-components row and overview list 26200B-209. This listing follows the explicit component list and preserves that discrepancy for confirmation. A separate tiltable-arbor table gives 245 mm vertical-post length, 25 mm diameter and 15.875 mm mount-hole diameter, but the supplied component list does not clearly identify a separate included arbor; confirm applicability before relying on those dimensions.
Included Optics vs. Optional Auxiliary Lenses
| Configuration with 10x Eyepieces | Magnification | Working Distance |
|---|---|---|
| Included, no auxiliary lens | 6.7x–50x | 108 mm |
| Optional 0.5x lens | 3.35x–25x | 240 mm |
| Optional 0.75x lens | 5x–37.5x | 132 mm |
| Optional 1.6x lens | 10.72x–80x | 50 mm |
| Optional 2x lens | 13.4x–100x | 41 mm |
Optional 15x and 20x eyepieces and auxiliary lenses are sold separately. Aven's maximum 200x family configuration requires optional optics; it is not the supplied magnification. Confirm mechanical clearance, lighting fit and stand compatibility before adding optics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magnification is included?
The detailed specifications provide 6.7x–50x using the supplied 10x eyepieces.
Is this a binocular system?
Yes. It uses the SPZ-50 binocular microscope body.
How does it attach to the bench?
Aven describes a heavy-duty table clamp that secures the articulating arm to the bench edge. Clamp capacity is not specified in these screenshots.
Can the arm move out of the way?
Yes. Aven specifically describes moving it aside when the microscope is not in use.
Does the light have a dimmer?
Yes. The system includes a variable-dimming power/control box for the integrated ring light.
Does it offer fine focusing?
The descriptive copy specifies coarse and fine focusing.
Is the maximum 200x available as supplied?
No. The included range is 6.7x–50x. Higher magnification requires optional eyepieces and auxiliary lenses.
Does this include a camera?
No camera, monitor or imaging software is listed in the package.
Is the system ESD-safe?
The supplied screenshots do not establish an ESD-safe rating for this configuration.
