Description
The SL10-3PX Sapphire Convex Lens is a high-performance optical component designed for precision applications requiring superior durability, chemical resistance, and wide spectral transmission. Manufactured from optical-grade single-crystal sapphire, this 10.0mm diameter, 3.0mm thick convex lens delivers excellent optical clarity across UV, visible, and infrared wavelengths (0.15–5.5µm). Its anti-reflection (AR) coating ensures >90% transmission efficiency in the 650–1200nm range, significantly reducing reflection losses for high-precision optical systems.
With a Mohs hardness of 9, sapphire lenses are among the most scratch-resistant optical materials available, ensuring long-term performance in demanding environments. They are highly resistant to abrasion, extreme temperatures, high pressures, and harsh chemicals, making them ideal for laser optics, infrared imaging, aerospace, and industrial applications. The SL10-3PX lens is precision-engineered with tight tolerances, fine-ground edges, and high surface quality, ensuring maximum light transmission and minimal optical distortion.
Whether for scientific research, industrial automation, or high-performance optical instruments, this sapphire convex lens offers exceptional durability and optical precision in extreme conditions.
