Description
Precision Optical Flats are essential components in the field of optics, providing a reliable reference for determining the flatness of unknown surfaces. These optical flats are crafted from high-quality Fused Silica, known for its exceptional optical properties and durability. For applications where cost is a consideration, Tower Optical also offers optical flats made from BK7 glass, which provide a flatness specification of λ/4 or better. These versatile components can also serve as optical windows, making them a valuable addition to any optical setup.
Available in both single-sided and double-sided configurations, these optical flats are designed to meet a wide range of precision requirements. The Fused Silica variants offer superior flatness, with options for λ/10 or λ/20, ensuring high accuracy in demanding applications. Sizes range from 25mm to 200mm in diameter, accommodating various project needs. Each optical flat undergoes precision grinding and polishing to achieve the desired specifications, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.
At Tower Optical, quality is paramount, and each optical flat is manufactured to the highest standards. The company prides itself on offering products that are not only precise but also cost-effective, embodying the philosophy that quality is priceless. For those requiring custom solutions, Tower Optical provides the flexibility to create bespoke optical flats tailored to specific requirements. With a commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, Tower Optical is a trusted partner in the world of precision optics.
