Light shining in one end from a source of illumination like an led or a laser travels down the fiber optic strand and emerges at the other end. The core of both is made of acrylic polymer pmma polymethyl methacrylate and is sheathed with a special thin layer of fluorine polymer which has a lower refractive index than the fiber core. We offer these fibers in two grades both with superior optical properties for improved transmission.
