Item Name:
Fused Quartz Rod - 27.0mm
SKU:
ABRQR27
Description:
This is a solid fused quartz rod with a 27.0 mm diameter. Fused quartz is a high-purity silica glass used when you need excellent heat resistance and very low thermal expansion, which helps it tolerate rapid temperature changes with reduced risk of thermal shock compared with many other glasses. In lampworking and scientific-style fabrication, larger diameter quartz rod is typically chosen when you need more working mass for shaping, sealing, or building durable quartz components, or when the finished part benefits from added strength and stiffness.
How it is used:
- Used as stock for fabricating larger quartz components where the added diameter provides strength and working mass for shaping.
- Used for repairs or modifications to quartz assemblies when compatible quartz material is required.
- Used in scientific glassworking applications where a clean, high-temperature clear material is preferred for functional parts.
Dimensions:
- Size 27.00mm
- Length 4'
- Ovality +/- 1%
- Bow 1.3mm per 1220mm length
- O.D. tolerances plus or minus 1.5%
