Borofloat® 33
High-quality borosilicate glass for precise and demanding applications
Borofloat® 33 combines the typical advantages of borosilicate glass with exceptionally high surface quality and excellent optical properties. The material is characterized by low thermal expansion, high temperature resistance, and very good chemical resistance.
Schröder Spezialglas processes Borofloat® 33 in thicknesses ranging from 0.7 mm to 25.4 mm and uses it to manufacture custom components for a wide variety of technical applications.
Borofloat® 33 is manufactured using the float process and stands out for its high homogeneity and precisely controlled material properties. Thanks to its high light transmission and low thermal expansion, the material is well-suited for applications where optical quality and dimensional stability are critical.
The material is resistant to numerous chemicals and can withstand high thermal cycling. As a result, Borofloat® 33 is used in fields such as measurement technology, mechanical engineering, laboratory applications, and optical and technical systems.
Schröder Spezialglas manufactures custom components from Borofloat® 33—ranging from individual prototypes to small batches and recurring production orders. Depending on the requirements, various processing methods and geometries can be implemented.
For decades, Schröder Spezialglas has been supporting customers in industry, research, and development in the implementation of technical glass solutions. From the initial idea through prototyping to mass production, we combine expertise in materials with modern manufacturing processes and documented quality procedures.
