Fused Quartz Rod - 31.0mm

Item Name:

Fused Quartz Rod - 31.0mm

SKU:

ABRQR31

Description:

This fused quartz rod is a solid, clear silica rod with a 31.0mm diameter. Fused quartz is used in lampworking and scientific glass work when you need a material that tolerates very high heat and rapid temperature changes better than most common glasses. Rod stock like this is commonly used as starting material for fabricating quartz components, for making heat-resistant supports and spacers, or as feedstock when adding material and structure during quartz flame work in an appropriate high-temperature torch setup.

How it is used:

• Use as raw stock to fabricate custom quartz parts by heating and shaping in an appropriate high-temperature torch setup.
• Use as a heat-resistant support, spacer, or handle in situations where standard glass would soften too easily.
• Use as feedstock material for adding mass, building up sections, or reinforcing joints when doing quartz flame work.
