Description
Circular, Square, Rectangular Mirrors from Tower Optical are crafted with precision to meet the highest standards of optical performance. These mirrors are designed with a highly polished surface that effectively reflects light, making them an essential component in various optical applications. The reflecting surface is typically a thin coating of aluminum or silver, applied to the front surface of the mirror. This design choice, known as a first surface mirror, ensures that the optical properties of the glass do not interfere with the incident or reflected light, providing a clear and accurate reflection.
Each mirror features a protected aluminum coating on the front surface, ensuring durability and longevity. The rear surface is finely ground to maintain the integrity of the mirror's structure. Tower Optical offers these mirrors in both standard and high-grade options, utilizing BK7 grade A optical glass or UV grade fused silica. This variety allows customers to select the material that best suits their specific needs, whether it be for standard applications or more demanding environments requiring high-grade materials.
At Tower Optical, quality is paramount, and the company prides itself on delivering products that are not only reliable but also customizable. Customers have the option to request custom versions of any mirror, tailored to their unique specifications. This flexibility, combined with the company's commitment to excellence, makes Tower Optical a trusted partner for all optical mirror 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 mirrors are made of BK7 grade A optical glass or fused silica.
The thickness tolerance of the mirrors is ± 0.2 mm.
