Product description

Leica HC Plan APO 20x objective with 0.70 NA, M25 thread, suited for high-resolution microscopy.

The Leica HC Plan APO 20x microscope objective (Model 506166, Article No. 11506166) features a *plan apochromat* design optimized for high numerical aperture (0.70 NA) imaging with an infinity-corrected optical system and a 0.17 mm cover glass correction. Its M25 thread interface ensures compatibility with Leica microscope stand systems commonly used in biotechnology and biomedical research. This objective is engineered for high-resolution optical performance, delivering excellent contrast and color fidelity essential for fluorescence analysis, live-cell imaging, and molecular diagnostics workflows. Widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biomanufacturing visual assays, it supports critical applications requiring precise optical correction to minimize chromatic and spherical aberrations. The objective is tested and verified for image quality, making it suitable for demanding cell imaging and histology tasks in advanced microscopy setups.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
