Description
At Tower Optical, we pride ourselves on offering mirrors with a highly polished surface designed for optimal light reflection. These mirrors are crafted with a thin coating of aluminum or silver, ensuring superior reflectivity. Our mirrors are predominantly first surface types, meaning the reflective coating is applied to the front surface. This design choice eliminates any interference from the glass itself, ensuring that the incident and reflected light maintain their intended optical properties. The rear surface of our mirrors is finely ground to enhance their overall quality.
All our mirrors feature a protected aluminum coating on the front surface, ensuring durability and longevity. We offer two grades of mirrors: Standard Grade and High Grade. Both grades are made from BK7 grade A optical glass, with the High Grade also available in UV Grade Fused Silica for specialized applications. Our commitment to quality is evident in the precise dimensional tolerances and exceptional surface quality of our products. Each mirror is crafted to meet stringent flatness and parallelism standards, ensuring they perform flawlessly in any optical application.
We understand that every project is unique, which is why we offer custom versions of all our mirrors. Whether you require specific dimensions or have particular specifications in mind, our team is ready to assist. Simply send us your drawings or specifications, and we will provide a detailed quotation tailored to your needs. At Tower Optical, quality is not just a promise; it is a priceless commitment to excellence.

Frequently Asked Questions
The purpose of a circular mirror is to reflect light.
The reflecting surface of the mirror is usually a thin coating of aluminum or silver.
A first surface mirror is a mirror where 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 ±0.2mm.
The surface quality of the mirrors is scratch/dig 40/20 or 10/5.
