Other*

Grinding tools are offered with flat faces (PL*) or with molded F/D curves (approximates the desired F/D curve) to match the primary mirror selection. All the above tools come with radial curve to assist the fabricator in grinding the mirror's surface more efficiently

For more precision F/D curves, please refer to the generated curve section..

** The tooling measuring 12.50" and larger are two plate glass discs fused together without radial grooves.

CUSTOM PLATE GLASS GRINDING TOOLS

*Other sizes can be made to the fabricator’s specifications. To facilitate the quotation process, the fabricator should submit a drawing of the blank and the dimensional requirements.
