Item Name:
Fused Quartz Rod - 7.0mm
SKU:
ABRQR7
Description:
This fused quartz rod is a straight, solid rod stock produced for high-temperature and chemically demanding work where you need excellent thermal shock resistance and stability. It is manufactured as a consistent diameter rod with controlled straightness and roundness tolerances, which matters when you are building precise scientific components or any torchworked assembly that must align cleanly. In lampworking, fused quartz rod is chosen when the job calls for extreme heat performance, rapid heat cycling, or compatibility with processes where standard glass is not suitable.
How it is used:
- Cut to length and fire-polish the cut ends to remove sharp edges and reduce stress points.
- Use as rod stock for forming high-heat components, supports, or structural elements in scientific lampworking builds.
- Heat and shape for specialty applications where fused quartz properties are required and dimensional consistency helps with alignment and fit-up.
Dimensions:
- Size 7.0mm
- Ovality 0.10mm
- Bow 1.3mm per 1220mm long
- O.D. tolerances plus or minus 0.30mm
- Length 4'
