Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 330mm x 5mm
SKU:
ABRQT197
Description:
This is a large-format piece of fused quartz tubing used when you need the thermal stability, chemical resistance, and high-temperature performance that standard lampworking glass cannot provide. Fused quartz is manufactured from high-purity silica and formed into tubing with extremely low thermal expansion, which is why it’s commonly chosen for high-heat scientific glass work, specialty fabrication, and applications where thermal shock resistance matters.
At this size, tubing like this is typically selected for custom builds, large apparatus components, furnace or process-related parts, and other projects where you need a substantial diameter with consistent material performance.
How it is used:
- Cut and cold-worked with appropriate diamond tooling and coolant to size for custom fabrication
- Used as a base tube for large scientific assemblies or specialty high-heat components
- Incorporated into builds where low thermal expansion helps reduce cracking from rapid temperature changes
- Often paired with compatible quartz-working methods and equipment rather than standard borosilicate lampworking techniques
Dimensions
- Inner Diameter: 320.00mm
