Original ACI mica discs can be used if the sight glass plates, for example made of borosilicate glass, are exposed to strong chemical stress.

Our mica discs are made of muscovite natural mica (clear quality) and have virtually no influence on the visibility of transparent sight glasses. Furthermore, mica discs increase the temperature resistance and service life of borosilicate sight glasses, for example.

Production and quality checks during the process guarantee the property values of the mica discs and the close dimensional tolerances. With these outstanding properties, mica discs can be used as an additional safety design, to sight glass plates, under extreme conditions.
