is a component manufacturing company based in Tokyo, Japan. Its name is from the word adamant, which was derived from the Greek word adamas meaning "diamond". At of its founding, Adamant's main products were watch jewels that were made of a hard material.
In 1957, Adamant separated from Namiki Precision Jewel Co., Ltd.[1] It started sales of jewel bearings for watches and clocks and began to manufacture cap jewel, hole jewel, impulse jewel and pallet stone. In 1980, it started manufacturing ferrules for the optical communication industry utilizing injection molding engineering and polishing techniques.

Variety of color Ceramics available such as White, Black, Blue and Brown.Featuring glossy by polishing finish and a high-class touch. LTCC(Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics)[6] are co-fired at low temperature (900°C) in process which makes silver material possible in order to use as a conductor.Suited for RF products due to low loss. Also, multi-layered and flat substrate can be made easily. Highly accurate, high-density mounting are realized.[7]
