The WZ series is available in a wide range of standard diameters from 12.7mm to 180mm and thicknesses from 2.0mm to 6.0mm (see part numbers WZ-0.5-2 through WZ-180-6). These CO₂ laser windows are commonly used as protective windows in laser cutting heads, beam delivery systems, and optical enclosures to shield internal optics from debris and spatter while maintaining high transmission at 10.6μm.
Although the base ZnSe substrate provides good transmission in the infrared, we recommend adding a dual-band AR coating (e.g., <0.2% reflectance per surface at 10.6μm) to maximize throughput and minimize thermal lensing. Custom coatings and sizes are available upon request.
Whether you need a standard zinc selenide protective window for a 1.5″ CO₂ laser head or a large 180mm window for industrial beam shaping, our WZ series delivers consistent optical performance, durability, and fast lead times. Protect your CO₂ laser investment with our precision-engineered ZnSe optics.
