Optical Standards

When choosing a supplier for optical MIL specs, it’s important to work with someone who is familiar with standards that optics must meet to perform in challenging environments, such as those in defense and aerospace. Standards can be broad and diverse, and a supplier with previous experience can help ensure a high-quality final product. Reynard Corporation has specialized testing and inspection equipment in-house, allowing us to be compliant with the following Mil-Specs.

MIL-STD-810B
Military Standard: Environmental Test Methods

Establishes uniform environmental test methods for determining the resistance of equipment to the effects of natural and induced environments peculiar to military operations.

MIL-C-675C
Military Specification: Coating of Glass Optical Elements (Anti-Reflection)

Establishes the minimum optical and durability requirements for magnesium fluoride interference films used as anti-reflection coatings on optical materials.

MIL-C-48497A
Military Specification: Coating, Single or Multilayer, Interference
