1. AmScope GP-95 Frosted Glass Stage Plate

Best for Frosted glass

Choose the AmScope GP-95 Frosted Glass Stage Plate if you need a 95 mm replacement plate with a frosted glass surface. It fits AmScope SE, SH, and SM series stereo microscopes; the 95 mm diameter alone does not establish fit for other models.

Before ordering for another microscope model, confirm that the plate fits that model.
