SMA905 Fluorescent Plastic Optical Fiber for Sights
The SMA905 fluorescent fiber from JINSHANG TECH is a light-collecting polymer fiber used to highlight aiming points and for passive indication.
Because the optical path is non-conductive, the SMA905 provides electrical isolation between connected equipment and can be routed past motors, drives and power wiring without picking up noise.
Key Characteristics
- Certified to ISO9001 ,ROHS,CE
- Housing/jacket color: Black
- Operating temperature range: -55~+85C
- Standard length: 1m, Accept customization
- Tough polymer construction resists impact and recoil handling
- High-contrast glowing end for a fast, daylight-visible aiming point
Typical Applications
The SMA905 is commonly used for front and rear fiber-optic pistol/rifle sights, daylight-visible aiming-point highlights, and replacement fluorescent rods for existing sights. The result is a reliable, repeatable build that tolerates the routing, vibration and repeated handling typical of production installations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does it need a light source? A: No. Unlike end-glow illumination fiber, fluorescent fiber collects ambient light and glows on its own during daylight use.
Q: Can it be cut to length? A: Yes, the rods are cut to the required sight length and finished to sit flush in the sight housing.
Q: What is fluorescent fiber used for? A: It gathers ambient light along its length and concentrates it at the tip, creating a bright glowing aiming point on fiber-optic sights without a battery.
Q: Which color and diameter should I pick? A: Colors (red/green/orange) are a visibility preference; diameters typically run 0.5–3.0 mm and must match the sight channel — measure the existing rod when replacing it.
