Bi-Convex Lens, N-BK7, 6.35 mm Diameter, 12.7 mm EFL, Uncoated

The KBX013 N-BK7 Bi-Convex Lens is an uncoated, 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) diameter, N-BK7 bi-convex lens with an effective focal length of 12.7 mm. It is designed to meet the demanding requirements of laser electro-optic applications. Newport's N-BK7 precision bi-convex lenses are manufactured from fine annealed optical glass and are polished to tight tolerances using master test plates to ensure minimum wavefront distortion.
