Overview
The Ferrule and Fiber Optic Pin Holder (3 in 1) is a three-in-one holder for cannula, ceramic ferrule, and fiber-optic pin workflows on compatible stereotaxic stations. It gives optogenetics, fiber-photometry, and implant-adjacent labs a dedicated ConductScience accessory page for holding and aligning the small implant hardware that needs to match the frame, arm, animal setup, and downstream light-delivery or recording equipment.
This product is priced at $181.00 and is organized around cannula and ceramic ferrule holder support, fiber-optic pin holder support, and ferrule-size planning for 1.25 mm, 2.5 mm, and 3.5 mm workflows. Those details are the practical buying points: confirm the implant or ferrule size, confirm frame and arm compatibility, then complete the station with drill, anesthesia, warming, and optical hardware planning.
Scientific Use
Ferrule and fiber-pin holders are useful when a stereotaxic workflow needs precise implant positioning for optogenetics, fiber photometry, cannula placement, probe-adjacent preparation, or chronic implant staging. The holder does not solve the entire optical system by itself; its value is in providing a stable accessory path for the small implant hardware that has to remain aligned during skull preparation and placement.
Buying Fit
Choose this page when the lab is planning cannula, ceramic ferrule, or fiber-optic pin holding rather than a syringe-only or electrode-only holder. Review it with the stereotaxic frame, arm upgrade, microdrill holder, nose-cone mask, warming support, and the optogenetics or photometry hardware selected for the study.

Practical Tips
Confirm ferrule, cannula, or fiber-pin dimensions before selecting the holder path.
Why: The holder is only useful when the small implant hardware and frame clearance match the planned workflow.
Review the holder with the microdrill holder, stereotaxic arm, nose-cone mask, warming, and optical hardware.
Why: Optogenetics and photometry setups depend on the whole station geometry, not just the holder.
Use this page for ferrule, cannula, and fiber-pin support; use electrode or syringe-holder pages when those are the central device paths.
Why: Separating holder types keeps procurement aligned to the physical device being positioned.

Compliance
What does the three-in-one holder support?
It is organized for cannula, ceramic ferrule, and fiber-optic pin holding on compatible stereotaxic stations, with ferrule-size planning around 1.25 mm, 2.5 mm, and 3.5 mm workflows.
Is this mainly for optogenetics or standard stereotaxic surgery?
It fits stereotaxic stations but is especially useful for optogenetics, fiber photometry, cannula, and implant-adjacent workflows where ferrule or fiber-pin hardware needs stable positioning.
What should I review with this holder?
Review the compatible frame, arm upgrade, microdrill holder, nose-cone mask, warming support, optical hardware, and selected ferrule or implant dimensions.
How is this different from an electrode holder?
Choose this holder for cannula, ferrule, or fiber-pin hardware. Choose the electrode holder page when the central hardware is a single or dual electrode path.
