Optical Cements and Accessories
SUMMERS Lens Bond optical cements are synthetic polymer adhesives manufactured under the strictest quality control. They are filtered to remove all particles larger than 1 micron in size, and filled under clean room conditions. These cements will meet and exceed military environmental specifications. LENS BOND Optical Cements are easy to use.
Optical Cements
Two Component Optical Cements
| Type C-59 | A two-component cement which Military Specification, MIL-A-3920. NSN#804000-266082-8. |
| Type M-62 | A versatile two-component Cement used by companies producing large quantities of cemented doublets. Type M-62 is popular because of its accelerated oven-cure speed. This cement also meets Military Specification, MIL-A-3920, NSN#8040-00-148-7287. |
| Type F-65 | A two-component, room temperature, curing cement used in experimental and short-run projects, or where curing ovens are not available. Meets MIL-A-3920. |
| Type RD3-74 | A modification of Type F-65. This cement remains slightly elastic after curing. Meets Naval Drawing Number 639AS604. |
| Type DC-90 | A two-component, hybrid ultraviolet sensitive optical cement used in reducing strain in large elements. |
| Type DB-99 | An optically clear UV curing Deblocking Cement (temporary adhesive) for precision optics. |
UV Curing Optical Cements
| Type UV-69 | A one-component, ultraviolet curing cement. Cure is achieved by using an ordinary sun lamp. NSN#8040-01-189-9644. |
| Type UV-71 | (see Type UV-74). |
| Type UV-74 | (a direct replacement for Type UV-71) A viscous, one-component, ultraviolet curing cement which meets MIL-A-3920 |
| Type J-91 | A general purpose, one-component, water white, 100% solids ultraviolet curing optical cement. This cement meets the requirements of MIL-A-3920. |
| Type HS-2 | An optically clear, single component, instant bonding (20 seconds) adhesive. |
| Type VTC-2 | A one-component, water white, UV curing photopolymer. |
| Type P-92 | A one-component, water white, UV curing photopolymer which may be used as an adhesive, sealant or potting material. |
| Type B SK-9 | A single component, UV curing photopolymer which exhibits high adhesion to plastics. |
Decementing Agents
| Lens Bond, Decementing Agent | Easily and safely decements optical cements with little or no breakage. |
| Milsolve | An easy to use decementing agent for Milbond. |
| Milbond, Separation Film | A protective water soluble film for those areas not being cemented. |
| Lens Bond Primer | A primer which assists in the bonding of difficult surfaces. |
Lense Coating Hardness Testers
| Testing Kit | A kit developed to test optical coatings on lenses that must meet military specifications. |
