Abstract
A bundle includes five or more cut elongated glass elements. Each cut elongated glass element includes a first end, a cylindrical portion, and a second end. At least one of the following equations is fulfilled: i) (I(max)−I(min))/I(mean)≤4.0×10[μm/μm]; or ii) (I(max)−I(min))/I(mean)≤4.0×10[μm/μm]. I(max) is a maximum center inner diameter of the cylindrical portions of all cut elongated glass elements; I(min) is a minimum center inner diameter of the cylindrical portion of all cut elongated glass elements; I(mean) is a mean of inner diameters at a center of the cylindrical portions of all cut elongated glass elements; I(max) is a maximum continuous inner diameter of the cylindrical portion of any single cut elongated glass element; and I(min) is a minimum continuous inner diameter of the cylindrical portion of the single cut elongated glass element.
