Custom circular and square windows

Windows are used to isolate different physical environments while allowing light to pass. The selection of a window should consider the properties of the different optical materials, transmission, wavelength range, and resistance to the environment. Tower offers a wide range of different materials and a variety of anti-reflecting coatings that can be deposited on the windows.

Tower Optical manufactures windows from BK7, UV Grade Fused Silica and Sapphire. Other materials are available on a custom basis. In addition, we offer three different quality standards as described below. Contact factory for info on Sapphire Windows.
