Hong Kong Felix Glass Co., Limited manufactures custom sapphire AR coated optical domes for CCTV surveillance equipment, outdoor camera housings and optical sensor protection. This renovation keeps the original product scope: monocrystalline sapphire, optional AR/AF/AG coating, hemispherical geometry, custom size support and OEM/ODM production.
The dome is designed for projects where a protective cover must combine high hardness, clear imaging, outdoor weather resistance and a geometry that fits the camera enclosure. It is especially relevant for coastal security systems, public-area monitoring, industrial sites and custom surveillance hardware.
This sapphire optical dome works as a hard transparent cover over the camera or sensor optical path. Compared with standard glass, sapphire is selected when the surface may face cleaning abrasion, blowing sand, salt fog, chemical exposure, impact risk or long outdoor service.
The hemispherical profile helps cover the lens area while supporting a wider viewing envelope than a flat window. Final optical behavior still depends on the drawing, radius, wall thickness, coating band and housing design.
Single-crystal sapphire provides a hard surface for scratch-sensitive outdoor and industrial camera use.
Anti-reflective coating can be specified for the target visible or near-infrared imaging band.
Diameter, curvature, wall thickness and edge treatment can be matched to the enclosure drawing.
The base material is synthetic single-crystal sapphire. BK7 or K9 optical glass may be discussed as a secondary option when the application does not require sapphire hardness. For CCTV surveillance systems, the usual engineering review focuses on coating, radius, optical zone and sealing edge.
| Product type | Custom sapphire AR coated optical dome for CCTV surveillance equipment |
|---|---|
| Model reference | FG-AR-SAPPHIRE-DOME-001 |
| Material | Synthetic single-crystal sapphire; BK7/K9 optical glass can be reviewed as a secondary custom option |
| Custom size range | Commonly reviewed from 10 mm to 300 mm outer diameter, subject to drawing and process review |
| Coating options | Single-side or double-side AR, AF, AG or combined functional coating by application need |
| Surface and edge | Optical polishing, custom edge finishing and sealing-fit review for camera housing assembly |
| Inspection focus | Dimensional check, appearance, optical clarity, coating appearance and packing protection |
Use environment should guide the final dome structure. The same sapphire material can serve different camera designs when the radius, edge form and coating are reviewed together.

For long-term monitoring where cleaning, weather and surface wear are part of normal service.

For projects that must consider salt fog, moisture, UV exposure and repeated maintenance cleaning.

For camera covers near dust, process equipment, moving parts or abrasive working conditions.
Sapphire is often selected when standard glass may scratch during outdoor operation, wiping, transport or field maintenance.
The material supports use in weather-exposed housings where corrosion resistance and thermal stability matter.
AR, AF and AG coatings help tune reflection, fingerprint behavior and glare response for the actual camera environment.
Outer diameter, radius, wall thickness, optical zone, edge structure and assembly interface are checked first.
Sapphire blank size, machining allowance and polishing route are matched to the dome geometry.
The hemispherical surface is processed for clarity, dimensional fit and project-specific appearance criteria.
AR, AF, AG or combined coating is reviewed by wavelength, reflection target and cleaning exposure.
Finished domes are checked and packed to reduce surface and edge risk during shipment.
For a practical quotation, share the camera housing drawing, dome outer diameter, inner clearance, radius, wall thickness, visible aperture, edge sealing requirement, coating side, wavelength band, quantity and target inspection criteria.
Small-batch prototype sampling and larger production can both be reviewed. For US-market purchasing teams, Felix Glass can organize the quote around drawing revision, application environment, inspection points and packing requirements so the technical discussion stays efficient.
The dome faces abrasion, cleaning, salt fog, chemical exposure, impact risk, outdoor weather or long-service image clarity needs.
The project needs a dome shape but does not require Mohs 9 hardness or severe-environment durability.
The camera has a defined wavelength band, reflection concern, glare issue or fingerprint exposure.
The housing fit, seal line, flange clearance or optical zone depends on exact mechanical dimensions.
Yes. The dome can be reviewed by drawing for outer diameter, curvature, wall thickness, optical zone and edge finish.
Yes. Coating selection can be reviewed by optical band, reflection target, glare condition, fingerprint exposure and cleaning method.
Sapphire is commonly considered for coastal and outdoor projects because it offers hardness and chemical stability, but the final housing and sealing design should also be checked.
