Cyclops Industries Inc. was founded in 1959 by Gene LeRoy with 13 patents while he was employed at Union Carbide. Located in South Charleston, the company can ship anywhere worldwide.
Cyclops Industries is a designer and manufacturer of safety sight glasses, viewport assemblies, sight flow indicators, spray rings, sight lights and sight glass replacements for observing processes in industrial pressure vessels and pipelines. Cyclops sight glass provides maximum safety under high pressure, high temperature, corrosive and volatile processing operations.
They can withstand a wide thermal shock range and are capable of resisting blow out or rupture. In most applications no packings, compression rings or screws are involved, eliminating costly continuous maintenance.
