Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 171mm x 3mm
SKU:
ABRQT158
Description:
This fused quartz tubing is large-diameter, clear quartz tube stock with a defined wall thickness, made for high-temperature service and demanding thermal cycling where standard glass tubing is not appropriate. In scientific lampworking, fused quartz is selected for applications that require excellent heat resistance and strong thermal shock performance. Tubing in this diameter class is typically used for larger fabricated components and process parts, most often worked on a glass lathe where the tube can be cut to length, faced, and joined into more complex assemblies.
How it is used:
- Used as tubing stock for fabricating large quartz components for high-heat and thermal-cycling applications.
- Commonly worked on a glass lathe for cutting, facing ends, joining sections, and forming transitions to other quartz parts.
- Chosen when the application demands strong resistance to heat shock and stable performance at sustained high temperatures.
