Fused Quartz Tubing - 11mm x 1mm
ABRQT39
Fused quartz tubing is constructed from pure silica dioxide (SiO₂) that has been melted and formed into a hollow cylindrical tube with precise inner and outer diameter specifications. This tubing is engineered for high-temperature applications where extreme thermal stability and optical clarity are essential. In lampworking and scientific glassblowing, fused quartz tubing serves as a specialized component for creating scientific glass apparatus, laboratory equipment, and specialized artistic pieces. Unlike borosilicate glass, fused quartz maintains its structural integrity at significantly higher temperatures, making it ideal for applications requiring sustained exposure to intense heat or rapid thermal cycling. The tubing's low coefficient of thermal expansion ensures minimal stress and cracking during heating and cooling cycles, while its exceptional purity makes it suitable for applications where chemical contamination must be avoided.
