The Fused Silica Half Round Tube is a precision semicircular component with an outer diameter of 4mm, an inner diameter of 2mm, a total length of 50mm and a wall thickness of 2mm, manufactured from high-purity fused silica. The flat half-section is cut cleanly without chipping, while the inner and outer walls are polished smooth for reliable optical and mechanical contact. With high UV transmittance, an ultra-low thermal expansion coefficient and excellent resistance to high temperature and acid and alkali, the tube delivers stable performance in demanding optical and laboratory environments. Its half-round geometry simplifies sample loading and unloading, making it a practical component for miniature optical and experimental systems.

The Fused Silica Half Round Tube is designed for miniature optical and laboratory systems that require precise, open-access tubing. It is widely used as a limiting part for miniature optical paths, guiding and constraining light beams with a stable open channel. In fiber systems, the tube serves as a fiber protection groove, shielding fibers while allowing easy placement and removal. The component is also adopted as a sample holder for spectral testing, providing a clean and inert platform for small samples. In illumination systems, it works as a light homogenizing accessory for mini light sources, distributing light evenly. Additionally, the tube functions as a micro experimental carrier in the lab, supporting small quantities of material during analysis.
