Material & Application Fit

Is Sapphire the Right Material for Your Dome?

Sapphire is often selected when surface hardness, abrasion resistance, mechanical strength and long service life justify the higher material and processing cost.

  • Abrasive outdoor environments
  • Underwater and subsea imaging
  • High-wear protective optics
  • EO/IR sensor protection
  • Surveillance camera systems
  • Unmanned and aerospace platforms

Engineering note: Sapphire is not automatically the best material for every dome. Wavelength, size, geometry, impact conditions, environment, optical requirements and budget must be reviewed together.

Technical FAQ

Questions Before Requesting a Quote

What information is required for quotation?

Please send available dimensions or drawings, material preference, radii, wall thickness, clear aperture, wavelength, coating, quantity, mounting interface, environment and required inspection documentation.

Can you manufacture from an existing sample?

A reference sample can support an initial review, but a controlled drawing and agreed acceptance criteria are recommended before production. Tell us which characteristics must be replicated.

Can I order a prototype before repeat production?

Yes, prototype projects can be evaluated before pilot or repeat production. MOQ and feasibility depend on material availability, size, geometry, tooling, coating and inspection requirements.

Which AR coatings can be evaluated?

Visible, NIR and selected application-specific coating targets can be reviewed. Provide wavelength, incidence range, polarization if relevant, environmental conditions and target reflection or transmission.

Can inspection reports be supplied?

Project-defined dimensional, cosmetic, optical, material or coating records can be included where applicable. Specify the required report and acceptance method in the RFQ.

How is lead time determined?

Lead time is quoted after reviewing material, size, geometry, tolerance, tooling, polishing, coating, quantity and inspection scope. Include your target date so the team can assess the route.
