Item Name:
Fused Quartz Rod - 37.00mm
SKU:
ABRQR37
Description:
This fused quartz rod is a solid, clear silica rod with a 37.0mm diameter. Fused quartz is chosen 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. In a glass shop, rods like this are commonly used as raw stock for fabricating quartz components, as a heat-resistant handle or support in high-temperature setups, or as a feedstock rod when building up or reinforcing quartz parts in an oxyhydrogen flame.
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 or devitrify too easily.
- Use as feedstock material for adding mass, building up sections, or reinforcing joints when doing quartz flame work.
Dimensions:
- Size 37.00mm
- Length 4'
- Ovality +/- 1%
- Bow 1.3mm per 1220mm length
