Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct size elliptical dome for my project?
Select a dome with an outside diameter that matches the overall feature size you require, and an inside diameter that suits the aperture, fixing or component it will cover. Measure your mounting area carefully, allowing a small tolerance for adhesive or mechanical fixings.
Can the fluorescent acrylic dome be drilled or machined?
Yes, the acrylic dome can generally be drilled or lightly machined using tools suitable for plastics, taking care to use sharp bits, moderate speeds and support the dome properly to avoid cracking. Testing on an offcut or spare part is recommended before working on the final piece.
Is the fluorescent blue dome suitable for illuminated or UV-lit displays?
