Apertures

All of the drilled apertures we sell are made in our own laboratory. They are carefully and individually inspected for cleanliness and concentricity. All apertures are guaranteed free of dirt or internal burrs as observed at 100-250X, depending on the aperture size.

The following disc diameters are available: .074", .078", .089", 120", .123", .158", .223", .236", .250", .310", .374", .499". Other diameters can be special ordered.

Every effort is made to hold to the following tolerances:
Hole roundness: within 2um
Hole size: -0 to +10% (Up to 50um) and -0 to +5% (Over 50um)

NOTE: Material, thickness, O.D. and hole size must be specified. Order by catalog number, giving hole size and outside diameter of disc. See chart for available sizes.
