Hasselblad B60
A 60mm bayonet filter mount used on CF-series Zeiss lenses for the Hasselblad V system
Overview
The Hasselblad B60 is a 60mm bayonet filter mount, also called "Bay 60." It was used on the newer CF versions of Zeiss lenses for the Hasselblad V system. It replaced the 50mm bayonet mount on the earlier "C" versions of the same lenses. The B60 shows up on lenses like the Zeiss Planar T✻ 80mm f/2.8 CF and the Zeiss 150mm f/4 Sonnar T✻ CF. It also appears in the product name "Instant Back - H1P (Hasselblad B60) (80mm)", which suggests that accessory is compatible with it.

Design
The CF version of the lens brought in a larger 60mm bayonet filter mount (B60 or Bay 60) and dropped the 50mm bayonet of the earlier C versions. The lens also got a rubber focus ring at the same time.
Context
The B60 mount came in with the CF series as part of an update to the Hasselblad V system optics. Hasselblad has since stopped developing new lenses and bodies for the V system.
