Custom Sapphire Cone Windows
Sapphire optical windows excel in applications involving high pressure, vacuum conditions, or corrosive atmospheres. In challenging environments, sapphire windows surpass all other optical materials, establishing a superior barrier against the elements. When facing harsh environmental conditions, these windows become essential for delivering elevated levels of performance and reliability.
The sapphire conical/tapered window features a finely ground tapered surface, which can be seamlessly installed with the housing. Apart from sharing similar parameters with normal conical windows made of general optical materials, the sapphire conical window boasts higher hardness and strength, making it suitable for deployment in some special environments.
Through our advanced sapphire window polishing processes, we achieve high-precision optical flatness, a surface finish with minimal scatter, and the elimination of surface and subsurface damage.
At HY, we specialize in crafting a variety of sapphire optical windows tailored to unique requirements and specifications. Leveraging our years of expertise in sapphire optical window production, we provide options with precision-polished surfaces, ensuring high surface accuracy and parallelism.

Why do sapphire cone windows have such high performance?
Sapphire cone windows are characterized by their exceptional hardness, strength, and wear resistance. Sapphire optical windows demonstrate remarkable resilience against harsh abrasives like sand and particulate matter, ensuring minimal impact on clarity. This particular feature positions sapphire crystal windows as the preferred choice for a variety of applications, including aerospace windows, vision systems for downhole drilling, inspection windows, watch crystals, and gun sights.
In environments with high pressure, sapphire glass windows outshine other transparent materials, emerging as the top choice for applications in high-pressure vessels, deep-sea windows, and sight glasses. The outstanding thermal and chemical properties of sapphire further enhance its suitability for transparent applications in pressurized in-process systems, deep-sea exploration, and equipment sensors.
light transmission properties of sapphire cone windows are good
As an ideal material for UV and IR applications, a sapphire optical window stands out for its ability to transmit extensively into both UV and IR bands. Its thermal and chemical resilience allows it to withstand extreme plasmas and temperatures, surpassing the capabilities of other materials. Even under such conditions, a sapphire window continues to transmit high-powered UV, visible, and IR light for extended periods without any degradation.
These unique properties position sapphire windows as the preferred material for UV/VIS/IR sensors, IR surveillance, reconnaissance, and broadband inspection equipment, especially in scenarios involving abrasives.
Sapphire windows emerge as the top choice for pyrometry, offering wide wavelength transmission while effectively isolating hot zones up to 2000°C from external room temperature observation. This makes sapphire windows the perfect sight window for furnaces and high-temperature processing equipment.
In the realm of medical and dental tools requiring UV sterilization, curing, and IR thermal processing, sapphire windows, and transparent tools shine in their performance.
