Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 106.6mm x 2.5mm
SKU:
ABRQT136
Description:
This is a large-diameter fused quartz tube supplied as straight, clear tubing. Fused quartz is a high-purity silica material used when you need excellent thermal shock resistance and high-temperature stability compared with standard glass tubing. In lampworking and scientific glass work, tubing in this diameter range is commonly selected as raw stock for fabricating larger quartz components where heat tolerance, rapid temperature changes, and clean material performance are important, such as sleeves, process tubes, and specialty assemblies.
How it is used:
- Cut the tube to length using quartz-appropriate cutting methods and tooling.
- Dress and smooth the cut ends to reduce chipping and improve handling safety.
- Heat and work the tubing with an appropriate high-temperature torch setup for quartz to form seals, pulls, transitions, or shaped sections depending on the build.
- Use as starting stock for custom fabrication projects where quartz is preferred for thermal and chemical performance.
