🔧 Product Description
The Schott A08031.40 is a single flexible fiber optic light guide from Schott's professional illumination accessory line, designed for use with Schott KL series cold light sources and compatible illuminators. The 8mm active input fiber diameter maximizes light collection from the source, while the flexible bundle construction allows the guide to be routed and positioned freely without kinking or light loss. At 40 inches (1016mm), the bundle length provides ample reach for most stereo microscope, inspection, and industrial illumination setups. The 10mm distal ferrule and 12mm tubing diameter are compatible with standard Schott light guide ports and a wide range of stereo microscope illumination inputs. Precision German fiber optic construction ensures consistent, high-efficiency light transmission and long service life.
🔎 Typical Applications
- Stereo microscope fiber optic illumination
- Industrial and laboratory inspection lighting
- Electronics and PCB inspection and rework
- Precision assembly and quality control illumination
- Replacement or spare light guide for Schott KL series systems
- Custom illumination setups requiring flexible single-arm light delivery
