Where Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm Sits in the Range

Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm combines a 2.70 mm diameter with a 22.20 mm relay pitch, a mid-range step for rigid endoscope relay trains.

This mid-step pairing is often chosen when the relay count must stay moderate without increasing tube diameter.

What to Confirm for Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm

Design note: 22.20 mm is a mid-range pitch; the drawing should confirm whether the relay is a single or double cemented build.

How We Supply Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm

For Coating Laboratories

As a blank, Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm is supplied uncoated with the diameter held for coating-lab loading and batch COA.

For OEM Assemblers

As a finished rod, it is made to your drawing with centration ≤3′ and measured batch values.

Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm — The Numbers Go on Your COA

The Φ2.70 × 22.20 mm batch COA includes measured diameter, length and centration values.

We measure it — and the numbers go on your COA.

Every batch is verified with interferometry, centration measurement and surface inspection. You get the actual measured values, not a “within spec” checkbox.
