12 Tolerances for polished filters

We offer polished filters in different dimensions and optical

surface quality.

12.1 Dimensions

The minimum thickness and tolerances do not apply to all pos-

sible combinations of dimensions and glass types. Some sensi-
tive glasses may require greater thickness or weaker tolerances.

12.2 Polished surfaces

Specifications depend on the geometry (thickness, size, shape,

effective area) of the filter.
