contact Chroma we got ours from them including the concave

balanced for the weight of the attached scanning mirrors. If there is a
significant weight difference in the replacement mirrors you may need to
recalibrate them.
As for replacements, you might be able to find a similar
size mirror off-the-shelf if you can get away with a little size
variation. Anchor optics has odd sized surplus mirrors periodically, and
25, 12.5, and 10mm are all standard sizes.
Otherwise you might have to talk
to an optical shop.

Hello
All:
I an trying to replace some parts in my biorad MRC 600 and I cannot
seem to find anywhere
to buy mirrors of the correct size. I am
looking for M1 (round mirror, 19.05mm dia, 3.2mm
thickness with either
gold or silver coating), and possibly the dichroic mirror,
galvano
scanning mirrors, and concave mirrors on either side of the scan
mirrors. Any advice on
where to find these would be greatly
appreciated.
