Newport

UV15-7 delivers superior physical strength properties, low shrinkage upon curing and good non-yellowing stability. This system bonds well to a wide variety of similar and dissimilar substrates including glass and metals. Other notable features include outstanding durability, good electrical insulation properties, and thermal cycling capabilities.

Optical windows are flat, transparent plates that allow light to pass through without altering its path. Made from materials like fused silica, BK7 and sapphire, our optical windows provide high transmission and durability, serving as protective barriers in optical systems.

Our optical components are made from a variety of materials, each chosen for its specific properties and suitability for different applications. Detailed technical specifications are available for each product and material we offer, including material properties, coating options and dimensional tolerances.

Optical prisms deviate, disperse, or rotate light beams. They are utilised in instruments for spectroscopy, rangefinding and beam alignment. Our selection includes right-angle, dispersing and penta prisms, manufactured to precise specifications.

UQG Optics is a leading supplier of precision optical components, offering a comprehensive range of high-quality products for many different industries.

Edmund Optics

Optical components are fundamental elements used in various optical systems, ranging from simple lenses and mirrors to complex assemblies in advanced scientific instruments. These components manipulate light to achieve desired outcomes such as focusing, filtering, or reflecting. Our optical components are tailored to meet the needs of diverse industries, including; medical, defence and aerospace, electronics, engineering and industrial manufacturing, instrumentation, oil and gas, university and research centres.

Featuring high light transmission properties, EP30HT resists temperatures up to 400°F. It conforms to Title 21, FDA Chapter 1, Section 175.105 for indirect food applications. It exhibits impressive physical strength and excellent adhesion to both similar and dissimilar substrates. With a very low shrinkage after cure, it forms bonds that are rigid and resistant to chemicals. EP30HT has a four to one mix ratio by weight and is available in convenient syringe and gun applicators.

Supreme 11HT-LO combines both high shear and peel strengths along with superior resistance to impact, thermal shock, vibration and stress fatigue cracking. Tensile lap shear strengths in excess of 2,000 psi and T-peel strengths of greater than 15 pli are readily obtained. Also, its adhesion to metals and glass is excellent. This two part epoxy produces durable, exceptionally tough bonds which are remarkably resistant to severe thermal cycling and many chemicals including water, oil, fuels and some organic solvents, even upon prolonged exposures.

Offering high temperature resistance up to 400°F, Master Bond EP3HT is a one component adhesive/sealant that withstands thermal cycling and many harsh chemicals. After curing, EP3HT readily obtains a tensile shear strength in excess of 2,100 psi. It can be applied to vertical surfaces without sagging or dripping and is frequently used for glass to metal bonding.

Optical lenses focus or disperse light and are critical in applications such as microscopy, photography and laser processing. We supply various lens types, including convex, concave and aspheric lenses, crafted from high-quality glass materials to ensure precision and reliability.

Opticallenses

One and two component Master Bond metal/glass adhesive compounds feature excellent strength properties. Available in a range of viscosities and cure speeds these products adhere soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, fused silica glass, aluminosilicate glass to metals such as aluminum, titanium, copper, steel, cast iron and invar. Special consideration to differences in thermal expansion coefficients is needed to ensure proper adhesive selection.
