UV Blocking
Features
- Blocks 99% of UV radiation
- Sharp filter cutoff for virtually no color distortion in the visible light region
- Can be applied to borosilicate glass for heat resistant applications
- Extremely durable and resistant to abrasion and cracking
- Heat stable for color consistency and performance stability
- Non-heat absorbing to protect filter life
- Longer life than plastic or gel
