Description
Circular, Square, Rectangular Mirrors by Tower Optical are crafted with precision to meet the highest standards of optical performance. These mirrors feature a highly polished surface designed to reflect light with exceptional clarity. The reflecting surface is typically a thin coating of aluminum or silver, applied to the front surface to ensure that the optical properties of the glass do not interfere with the incident or reflected light. This design choice enhances the mirror's ability to deliver accurate and undistorted reflections, making them ideal for a variety of optical applications.
Each mirror is equipped with a protected aluminum coating on the front surface, ensuring durability and longevity. The rear surface is finely ground to maintain the structural integrity of the mirror. Available in both standard and high-grade options, these mirrors are made from BK7 grade A optical glass or UV grade fused silica, offering a range of choices to suit different needs and preferences. The dimensional tolerance and surface quality of these mirrors are meticulously controlled to provide consistent performance across all models.
At Tower Optical, quality is considered priceless. The company is committed to delivering products that not only meet but exceed customer expectations. With the option to create custom versions of any mirror, Tower Optical invites customers to share their specific requirements or drawings to receive a tailored quotation. This dedication to customization and quality ensures that each mirror is perfectly suited to its intended application, providing reliable and precise optical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
The mirrors are used for reflecting light.
The reflecting surface is usually a thin coating of aluminum or silver.
Most mirrors for optical applications are called first surface types since the coating is on the front surface thereby eliminating the optical properties of the glass from affecting the incident or reflected light.
The mirrors are made of BK7 grade A optical glass or fused silica.
The dimensional tolerance of the mirrors is +0.0/-0.1mm for standard grade and +0.0/-0.1mm for high grade.
