Item Name:
Fused Quartz Tubing - 38mm x 2mm
SKU:
ABRQT101
Description:
This is fused quartz tubing made from high-purity quartz glass and formed into a straight, round tube with consistent wall thickness. Fused quartz is chosen in lampworking and scientific glass work when you need excellent heat resistance, low thermal expansion, and strong performance in high-temperature or high-thermal-shock applications. This size is commonly selected when you need a larger outside diameter tube with a relatively thin wall for fabrication work where heat control, even wall distribution, and clean seals are important.
How it is used:
- Cut the tubing to length using appropriate glass cutting methods for quartz, then fire-polish or dress the cut edge as needed for safe handling and cleaner joins.
- Heat and rotate evenly in a neutral flame to bring the tube up to working temperature without creating localized hot spots.
- Use for building or repairing quartz components where high heat tolerance is required, such as sleeves, liners, process tubes, and specialty assemblies.
- Join to other quartz components by carefully matching heat and alignment, keeping the wall thickness uniform through the seal to reduce stress.
Dimensions:
- Inner Diameter: 34.00mm
