Custom AR coated single crystal sapphire optical dome for ROV aerospace EOIR camera protection
Direct answer

What Mohs 9 Sapphire Dome Solves For Your Optical System

Select sapphire dome when flat optical windows or standard glass cannot withstand deep-sea pressure, sand abrasion, salt fog corrosion, thermal shock or long-term outdoor exposure. Dome geometry maintains wide-angle optical path while protecting imaging sensors in sealed camera housings.

Mohs 9 Extreme Hardness

Single crystal sapphire withstands sand scouring, repeated cleaning, saltwater erosion and long field deployment.

Tunable Optical Transmission

Ultra-precision polishing + custom AR coating optimized for UV, VIS, NIR or mid-IR wavelength bands.

Full Drawing Customization

Custom dome diameter, spherical radius, wall thickness, flange, edge chamfer, scratch-dig & flatness tolerance.

How Felix Glass Reviews a Sapphire Optical Dome RFQ

01

Drawing Review

Diameter, radius, wall thickness, flange or edge form, optical zone and mounting method are checked.

02

Material Planning

Sapphire blank size, machining allowance and coating route are planned according to the application.

03

Grinding and Polishing

Diamond tooling and controlled polishing are used to form the dome and improve optical clarity.

04

Coating Review

AR, AF, AG or other coatings are selected by wavelength range, cleaning method and service environment.

05

Inspection and Packing

Finished parts are checked for dimensions, surface quality, coating appearance and shipment protection.

Original capability retained

From Prototype Sampling to Mass Production Orders

We accept low-volume prototype and large batch OEM orders. To get fast, accurate quotation, send your dome 2D/3D drawing, target quantity, material selection, coating wavelength, tolerance, scratch-dig requirement, working pressure/environment and inspection standards.

Sample and bulk lead time depends on geometry complexity, coating and inspection criteria. Our optical engineers review manufacturability before quotation to avoid unexpected production risk.

Decision support

When to Choose Sapphire Instead of Standard Optical Glass

Choose Sapphire When

The cover faces abrasion, repeated cleaning, salt fog, heat, pressure, outdoor exposure or long-service optical protection requirements.

Review BK7 or K9 When

The part needs optical clarity but does not require sapphire hardness or severe environment resistance.

Confirm Coating When

The optical system has a defined wavelength band, reflection target, fingerprint exposure or glare concern.

Buyer FAQ

Questions Before Ordering Mohs 9 Sapphire Optical Dome

Can sapphire dome diameter and spherical radius be fully customized?

Yes. We manufacture per your 2D/3D drawing, custom outer diameter, spherical radius, wall thickness, flange geometry and optical zone.

What surface quality and flatness can you achieve?

Scratch-dig from 60/40 down to 10/5. Surface flatness λ/10 is available for high precision EO/IR optical systems.

Can you supply COA inspection report? Is NDA available?

Yes. COA with dimension and optical test data provided per batch. NDA agreement is available for aerospace and defense EO/IR projects.

Do you accept prototype sample orders? What is lead time?

Yes, 1pc prototype is acceptable. Sample lead time:7~14 working days. Mass production lead time: 20~35 working days.

Is sapphire dome suitable for deep sea ROV high pressure application?

Sapphire is ideal for subsea camera housings. High mechanical strength, seawater corrosion resistance. We evaluate pressure requirement during drawing review.

What documents do I need to send to get fast quotation?

Submit your 2D/3D drawing, target quantity, wavelength/coating spec, working pressure, scratch-dig requirement and inspection criteria.
