Shamir SuperLite™ 1.6
Shamir’s SuperLite 1.6 plastic material stands out because of its superior capability to be drilled and mounted into rimless frames. With Shamir’s SuperLite 1.6, labs can create lenses that are 30% thinner and lighter than lenses made out of a regular plastic substance. This advanced substrate enables labs to surface lenses to a 1.3 mm center thickness.
In addition, it gives the lens the capability of having an Abbe value of 42[D] – a higher Abbe value than other high index or polycarbonate lenses.
| Shamir SuperLite 1.6 is an advanced substrate material providing numerous advantages: |
| · | Highest quality material for rimless glasses. |
| · | A strong and durable material, it can be surfaced down to
1.3 mm center thickness and meet FDA standards. |
| · | Its impact resistance level is exceedingly high, enabling it to successfully compete with polycarbonate. |
| · | It has a 100% UV light absorbency level. |
| · | It is compatible with hard coating and A.R. coating. |
| · | It has a specific gravity of 1.3g/cc |
Shamir SuperLite 1.67
Made from a new, improved MR-10 formula
Shamir's SuperLite 1.67 formula is based on the optimal MR-10 monomer on the market. Developed by Eyal Optical Industry, this SuperLite formula enables the creation of fully aspheric, asymmetric progressive lenses that are 30% thinner and lighter than other lenses made out of regular plastic material. Capable of being surfaced down to 1.3mm center thickness, the lenses ensure stylish chic coupled with a feeling of visual well-being.
Shamir’s new, advanced SuperLite 1.67 formula is based on Mitsui’s MR- 10 monomer. It leads the industry because of these benefits:
| · | Shamir’s substrate has the highest light transmittance in the 1.67 lens market. |
| · | Shamir SuperLite formula transforms the lens into the clearest 1.67 lens on the market. |
| · | The formula’s high stability to RX and fitting processes enables trouble free surfacing, edging and drilling. |
| · | The lens is capable of withstanding high temperatures (can be raised to 1000C) in order to undergo coating and tinting. |
