Men's Aviator Sunglasses | B2B Wholesale & OEM/ODM Manufacturing Guide

 

The Men's Aviator Sunglasses feature a classic double-bridge navigator silhouette engineered for structural rigidity and consistent batch production. Built for optical distributors, private-label brands, and corporate uniform programs, this platform balances traditional aesthetics with modern metallurgical and optical standards. Production utilizes Japanese Citizen CNC automatic lathes and German pneumatic stamping presses to maintain frame symmetry within a 0.1mm tolerance threshold, ensuring stable fit profiles across bulk shipments.

 

Key Features

 

Structural Integrity: Reinforced double-bridge construction welded via precision laser technology to withstand mechanical torsion.

 

Corrosion Resistance: Multi-layer vacuum electroplating (IP plating) tested to withstand 48-hour neutral salt spray tests, with XRF-verified layer thickness exceeding 0.3 um.

 

Ergonomic Weight Distribution: Balanced mass center positioned across the brow bar to minimize nasal bridge pressure points during extended wear.

 

Modular Component Integration: Standardized barrel hinge architecture compatible with custom temple core wires and interchangeable nose pad assemblies.

 

Optical Compliance: Meets global sunglass safety and transmittance standards including ISO 12312-1, ANSI Z80.3, and AS/NZS 1067.1.

 

Lens Options

 

Performance specifications vary by specific end-use requirements. All lenses incorporate backside anti-reflective (AR) coating to eliminate internal reflections.

Standard Dimensions:
• Lens Width: 58mm (Customizable: 55mm - 62mm)
• Bridge Width: 14mm (Customizable: 12mm - 16mm)
• Temple Length: 135mm (Customizable: 130mm - 145mm)

 

Surface Finish Options: Polished Gunmetal, Matte Black, Electroplated Gold, Rose Gold, and Brushed Silver.

 

Nose Pads: Medical-grade silicone or hypoallergenic PVC with an internal metal core for secure adjustment.

 

Technical Specifications

 

Hinge Mechanism: 3-barrel or 5-barrel stainless steel optical hinges tested to 10,000 open/close cycles without loosening.

 

Spring Hinge Integration: Optional integrated flex hinges offering up to 15 degrees of outward expansion.

 

Weight: 24 grams (configured with standard stainless steel frame and TAC lenses).

 

Tensile Strength: Temple wire pull-out resistance exceeding 50N of static load.

 

Drop-Ball Test: Lenses withstand a 16mm steel ball dropped from 1.27 meters (compliance with FDA 21 CFR 801.410).

 

Design & Comfort

 

Facial Fit Profile: Optimized curve base (Base 6 curvature) engineered to fit medium to large face shapes while accommodating standard prescription lens edging (Rx-able up to +/- 4.00 diopters).

 

Temple Tip Design: Ergonomically contoured acetate or injection-molded temple tips with internal grip texturing to prevent slippage during perspiration.

 

Weight Balance: Front-to-back weight ratio engineered at 55:45 to rest securely on the zygomatic arch and ears without nasal indentation.

 

Applications

 

Optical Retail & Private Label: Direct integration into established brand collections requiring reliable baseline tolerances and consistent SKU replication.

 

Corporate & Uniform Procurement: Standardized eyewear for aviation personnel, logistics fleets, security forces, and outdoor field operations where glare reduction and durability are mandatory.

 

Promotional Merchandise: High-perceived-value corporate gifting programs requiring laser-engraved branding and customized packaging.

 

Customization & OEM/ODM

 

Production lines support comprehensive brand customization tailored to wholesale buyers and brand owners.

 

Laser Etching & Printing: Custom logo laser-engraved on the outer temple tips or pad-printed on the inner temple arm.

 

Color Matching: Custom frame plating and lens tinting matched to Pantone (PMS) or physical color swatches.

 

Packaging Customization: Branded hard cases, microfiber cleaning pouches, outer folding cartons, and hang tags produced per client design files (AI/STEP formats).

 

OEM/ODM Workflow: Initial CAD rendering (3 to 5 business days) -> 3D printed prototype validation -> Tooling fabrication -> Pilot batch run (MOQ: 300 pairs per SKU) -> Mass production.

 

Manufacturing & Quality Control

 

Production operates out of an optimized optical component facility equipped with CNC automatic cutting machines, multi-axis laser welders, and automated vacuum plating chambers. Quality assurance follows an AQL 2.5 (ISO 2859-1) sampling standard across four distinct checkpoints:

 

Raw Material Inspection: Positive Material Identification (PMI) spectrometer testing on incoming Monel and stainless steel coils to verify alloy composition and nickel-release compliance (EN 1811).

 

Plating Thickness Verification: X-ray fluorescence (XRF) coating thickness analysis ensuring IP gold/gunmetal layers exceed 0.3 um to prevent premature wear.

 

Weld Joint Integrity Test: 100% optical comparator inspection of bridge and hinge laser-weld penetration angles and cross-hatch adhesion testing on surface finishes.

 

Final Optical Inspection: Automated lens focal power verification, astigmatism axis alignment check, and polarization axis verification prior to cartoning.

 

Packaging & Shipping

 

Standard Bulk Packaging: Individual polybag protection, high-density EVA foam tray organization within master cartons to eliminate temple-to-lens friction during transit (12 pairs per box, 120 pairs per master shipping carton).

 

Maritime Protection: 5-layer corrugated export cartons reinforced with strapping bands and integrated 50g silica gel desiccant packs to mitigate high-humidity corrosion risks during container shipping.

 

Logistics Support: FOB, CIF, or DDP shipping terms via air freight, sea freight (FCL/LCL), or express courier services with complete customs documentation (Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin, FDA/CE declarations).

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom OEM orders?

A: The standard MOQ is 300 pairs per model, which can be split across up to 3 frame/lens color variations (minimum 100 pairs per colorway). For fully custom tooling (proprietary frame shapes), the MOQ is 1,000 pairs.

Q: How do you ensure the metal frames do not cause skin irritation or allergic reactions?

A: All base metal alloys comply with the European Union Nickel Directive (EN 1811 / EN 12472). Frames undergo a nickel-release passivation process and are sealed with a hypoallergenic clear coating or IP gold plating to ensure nickel migration stays well below the 0.5 ug/cm2/week threshold.

Q: Can these aviator frames accommodate prescription (Rx) lenses?

A: Yes. The frame groove design and lens bezel depth are engineered to accept standard prescription sun lenses milled by optical laboratories, supporting single-vision and progressive prescriptions within +/- 4.00 diopters.

Q: What documentation is provided for regulatory compliance in the US and European markets?

A: Shipments include documentation and third-party test reports (issued by ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories such as SGS or Intertek, traceable to specific lot numbers) verifying compliance with FDA regulations (21 CFR 801.410 drop-ball test), ANSI Z80.3 standards for the US market, and CE / ISO 12312-1 certifications for the European market.

Q: What is the standard production lead time for bulk orders?

A: Standard production lead time is 25 to 35 business days following sample approval and receipt of the deposit. Rush orders can be evaluated based on current factory scheduling and raw material availability.

Q: What is your sample policy for new B2B buyers?

A: Pre-production stock samples are available within 3 to 5 business days for evaluation. Custom logo or custom color samples require 10 to 14 business days. Sample fees are fully refundable upon the placement of a qualifying bulk order meeting the standard MOQ.
