Description
At Tower Optical, we understand that quality is not just a feature—it's a necessity. Our circular, square, and rectangular mirrors are crafted with precision to meet the highest standards of optical performance. Each mirror features a highly polished surface designed to reflect light with exceptional clarity and accuracy. 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 first surface design is crucial for applications requiring precise light reflection.
Our mirrors are available in both standard and high-grade options, each with a protected aluminum coating on the front surface. The standard grade mirrors are made from BK7 grade A optical glass, while the high-grade mirrors offer the choice of BK7 grade A or fused silica. These materials are selected for their superior optical clarity and durability, ensuring that our mirrors perform reliably in a variety of settings. The rear surface of each mirror is finely ground to enhance the overall quality and performance.
We pride ourselves on our ability to provide custom solutions tailored to your specific requirements. Whether you need a unique size, shape, or specification, our team is ready to assist. Simply send us your drawings or specifications, and we will provide a detailed quotation. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction ensures that you receive a product that meets your exact needs.

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 thickness tolerance of the mirrors is ± 0.2 mm.
The surface quality of the mirrors is scratch/dig 40/20 or 10/5.
