TKING supplies Borofloat3.3 dichroic glass colour filters for logo lights — what it means for gobo lens buyers

lens 1 min read

A recent move in the gobo lens space changes a few assumptions buyers have carried for years. Below, the practical read — what matters for a real install, not the press release.

What's happening

TKING Glass promotes 0.2-1mm vacuum-coated dichroic colour filters on Borofloat3.3 glass for logo lights and gobo applications. The filters withstand 550°C, do not fade or peel, and deliver stable colour density and consistent images unaffected by environmental changes — key for reliable gobo colour rendering under high-temperature LED sources.

Why it matters for buyers

For a retailer, venue or signage buyer, the practical effect is simple: the unit that reads on your wall at your ambient light, with your artwork, beats the one with the bigger number on the box. Specification order — distance, image size, ambient, then brightness — decides the result.

It also changes lead-time risk. Custom gobos and certified outdoor builds need briefing before the date is fixed; the projector is rarely the long pole, the artwork and certification are.

The technical angle

Resolution of the projected image is set by the gobo, not the projector. A crisp 10,000 dpi etched glass gobo on a modest lamp still beats a soft pattern on an expensive one. Match the artwork to the glass, not the other way round.

What to specify

Before you request a quote, lock these down:

  • MOQ and dispatch window before the event date
  • Image size you need at that distance
  • Gobo material: glass for longevity and colour, metal for cheap short runs
  • Throw distance from bracket to surface, measured on site — not estimated

Common questions

Why does my colour look washed out?

Usually a dyed-glass filter fading under heat, or too many filter layers eating output. Switch to dichroic and quote filtered lumens, not bare lamp lumens.

Glass or metal gobo?

Glass for anything long-running or colour; metal for short, cheap runs. Glass resists the hot spot that burns coated steel within a season.
