This 22.90 mm relay step is already in production. Send the drawing and get a fit check, tolerance review and quote within 24 hours. No custom-quote wait. Supplied as uncoated rod lens blanks for coating laboratories, or finished per your drawing for OEM assembly, with a measured batch COA. It keeps the widely used 22.90 mm relay pitch at a slimmer 2.70 mm diameter.
Specifications
Final tolerances, glass grade and build type are confirmed against your drawing at quote.
Size Positioning
Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm combines a 2.70 mm diameter with a 22.90 mm relay pitch, balancing tube space and relay count.
This pairing is common in builds that want a standard relay pitch with more clearance around the rod.
Design Notes
Design note: Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm balances wall clearance and relay count; confirm the datum and edge treatment on your drawing.
Two Supply Paths
Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm blanks are supplied uncoated with the diameter held for coating labs.
Finished rods are made to drawing, with centration measured and reported on the batch COA.
Real Production Photos
Photos are production references; final dimensions follow your drawing.
Proven Size
Using 2.70 mm at the common 22.90 mm pitch gives builders more tube wall while keeping a standard relay step.
Drawings first. A drawing is always the fastest way to a precise match — send yours and we take it from there.
In-house production
You can check Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm by requesting the batch COA; the numbers are measured per batch.
Quality Evidence
Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm ships with a COA containing measured diameter, length and centration.
Inspection & Metrology
Every batch is verified with interferometry, centration measurement and surface inspection. You get the actual measured values, not a “within spec” checkbox.

Surface form tested by interferometry — PV/RMS values from the actual measurement.

Centration checked on the centration station, typically ≤3′. The reading shown is from a real part — 2.02′.

Surface and edge quality inspected under a video microscope — scratch/dig per MIL-PRF-13830B.

A passing surface from a production run: PV 0.51λ, RMS 0.059λ. Rejects never leave the workshop.

Workstation measurement for the Φ2.70 × 22.90 mm process — PV 0.424λ.
Real measurement, kept on file. Your COA gets the same kind of data.
