Frequently Asked Questions

How are Integrix rifle scopes manufactured?

Integrix rifle scopes are manufactured in Taiwan using advanced CNC machines for precision components, with tolerances held to within 5 microns. Assembly occurs in a Class 100 clean room, followed by triple nitrogen purging and rigorous testing, including extreme temperatures and drop tests, to ensure durability and optical performance.

What quality control measures are used in Integrix scope production?

Quality control at Integrix involves inspecting reticles under microscopes for imperfections, verifying resolution, contrast, and magnification against military standards using collimators, and conducting extreme temperature (-40°C) and waterproof pressure tests.

What premium materials does Integrix use in their rifle scopes?

Integrix utilizes high-quality glass sourced from German Schott or Japanese Ohara, known for their optical clarity. These lenses are treated with multi-coatings to achieve a light transmission of up to 92%.

How does Integrix ensure the durability of their rifle scopes?

Durability is a key focus, demonstrated through extreme temperature testing down to -40°C and multiple drop tests onto stairs. Scopes are also subjected to waterproof pressure testing and triple nitrogen purging to prevent internal fogging.
