Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 185mm x 3.5mm
SKU:
ABRQT163
Description:
This fused quartz tubing is a large-diameter, precision-formed clear quartz tube used when you need exceptionally high heat resistance and thermal stability compared to standard glass tubing. Fused quartz is commonly chosen for scientific lampworking and high-temperature applications because it withstands intense heat and thermal cycling while remaining dimensionally stable. This size is typically selected for larger builds where a substantial tube diameter is required, such as custom quartz components, high-heat process parts, or specialty assemblies made on a glass lathe.
How it is used:
- Used as base tubing stock for fabricating custom quartz parts in scientific glassblowing and high-temperature assemblies.
- Commonly worked on a glass lathe for operations such as cutting to length, facing ends, joining sections, and forming transitions to other quartz components.
- Selected when the application demands strong resistance to heat shock and sustained high-temperature exposure.
