Item Name:
Fused Quartz Rod - 40.0mm
SKU:
ABRQR40
Description:
This fused quartz rod is a solid, clear quartz stock used when you need a material that tolerates extreme heat and rapid temperature changes with far less movement than typical glass. In lampworking and scientific-style glasswork, quartz is selected for builds where stability in high heat matters, such as making heat-resistant components, forming durable handles and supports, or producing parts that will see repeated thermal cycling.
Because this is solid rod rather than tubing, it is ideal when you want strength, mass, and a clean, consistent diameter for shaping, sealing, or machining into custom parts.
How it is used:
- Heat and shape it in a torch for high-temperature components that need excellent thermal stability
- Use it as solid stock for custom fabricated parts where a consistent diameter is important
- Cut to length for handles, supports, or spacers used around high-heat work areas
- Flame-finish ends after cutting to improve handling and reduce sharp edges
Dimensions:
- Size 40.0mm
- Length 4'
- Ovality +/- 1%
- Bow 1.3mm per 1220mm length
- O.D. tolerances plus or minus 1%
