Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 16mm x 1mm
SKU:
ABRQT59
Description:
This is clear fused quartz tubing made from high-purity silica and manufactured as a straight, round tube with a consistent wall thickness. Fused quartz is used in lampworking and scientific glass fabrication when you need a material that can tolerate very high heat and rapid temperature changes with a lower risk of cracking from thermal shock. This diameter and wall combination is a practical choice when you want a sturdy tube for high-heat sleeves, liners, and heat-exposed assemblies where added rigidity and durability matter.
How it is used:
- Used as high-temperature tubing in scientific and functional glass fabrication where heat resistance and thermal shock resistance are required.
- Used as a protective sleeve or liner around components that see intense radiant heat or sustained high temperatures.
- Cut to length and worked with appropriate quartz-working techniques and tooling when building or repairing heat-exposed assemblies.
Dimensions:
- Inner diameter: 14.00mm
- Outer diameter: 16.00mm
- Wall thickness: 1.00mm
- Standard Length: 4'
