Sapphire is a remarkable material combining optical clarity, high strength and electrical isolation.  With our many years of service, Omley has experience brazing sapphire in all kinds of geometries and for a wide array of applications.

As is the case with all aluminum oxide materials, brazing can be accomplished using either the moly/manganese metalization process or the active brazing process.  Each process has its strengths and limitations.  Omley brings a wealth of experience with both processes and can make recommendations based on the geometry and process requirements of your project.

 

Some of the more common applications include:

  • Vacuum Viewports
  • Protective Optical Shields
  • Sapphire-Tipped Process Probes
  • CCD Enclosures
  • Lamp Housings
  • High Pressure Windows
  • Sapphire Insulated Feedthroughs
  • Sapphire Insulated Line Breaks
