🔧 Product Description

The Schott A08575 is a dual gooseneck fiber optic light guide built with black dekabon semi-rigid tubing and permanently attached focusing lenses on each arm. The key differentiator of the A08575 over standard dual goosenecks is the integrated focusing lens barrels — turning the knurled rings adjusts the spot size continuously from a broad flood to a tight focused beam, giving you precise control over illumination intensity and coverage without changing accessories.

The dekabon construction holds its shape after positioning, eliminating the drift and sag that flexible fiber bundles exhibit during use. With both arms fed from a single light source input, the dual configuration delivers balanced illumination from two directions simultaneously — placing the arms in opposing positions produces near shadow-free lighting that reveals surface texture and topography without harsh directional shadows.

The 8mm distal ferrule diameter and standard output design are compatible with Schott's accessory ecosystem including additional spot lenses and polarizing caps. Custom and modified configurations are available — contact us for details.


🔎 Typical Applications

  • Stereo microscope illumination requiring adjustable spot size
  • Surface inspection and quality control with shadow-free lighting
  • Electronics, PCB, and semiconductor component inspection
  • Gemology, jewelry, and fine materials examination
  • Replacement or upgrade dual gooseneck for Schott light sources
