Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 162.7mm x 6.35mm
SKU:
ABRQT155
Description:
This fused quartz tubing is manufactured from high-purity silica and is used when a project demands extreme heat capability, strong thermal shock resistance, and excellent chemical durability. In scientific glassblowing and other high-temperature fabrication, fused quartz is the material of choice when standard glass cannot tolerate the operating temperature or when process purity and stability are critical.
With a substantial outside diameter and a heavier wall, this tubing is typically chosen for builds that need added strength and durability in service. It is commonly used as raw stock for custom quartz components such as process tubes, sleeves, and large tube sections that will see intense heat, rapid temperature cycling, or aggressive environments.
How it is used:
- Used as raw stock for scientific glass fabrication when a build requires fused quartz rather than standard glass
- Cut and prepped for custom work such as process tubes, sleeves, and large tube sections depending on the application
- Worked with quartz-capable torches and appropriate ventilation, using controlled heat to manage quartz’s working characteristics
