Description

LOT OF SIX (6) HIGH PURITY ALUMINA CERAMIC ROD REFRACTORY
No.: 100
You are buying a Lot of Six (6) High Purity Alumina Ceramic Rod.
They are in mint condition being NOS (New Old Stock). They are made from 99% purity Aluminum Oxide (Al
2
O
3
) which of course is Alumina. Generally the balance of composition for this purity Alumina material is of Silicon Dioxide (SiO
2
) which is Silica.
This material has very high hardness, very high stiffness, very good corrosion resistance to chemicals at high temperature, and very high refractoriness or use temperature. They may be used for a variety of electrical, mechanical, and thermal applications. They may be used as setter plates for firing parts in a kiln. The may be used for high temperature furnaces and as high temperature refractory turntables. They may also be used for jewelry or for applications requiring high wear or abrasion resistance. Your imagination is the only limiting factor in the spectrum of possible applications for this component. Be sure to view all photos as they are an integral component of the item description.
The specifications for these components are as follows:
Outside Diameter:
Average approximately 0.100” +/- 0.003" or (2.5 mm)
Length:
5.100" +/-).010 (130 mm)
Please Note:
There are visually discernible differences in any or all of the dimensions. These are not precision technical ceramic components. There is no warp or camber specification for this item. They are fairly round on the diameter; however they are not all straight. Some rods exhibit camber or waviness. Cut as 2" lengths there are straight sections. They are sold in "as is" condition.There may also be “firing” color variations inherent in the material. The thermal shock resistance is not very high so exercise rule of thumb caution. “The larger the piece of material the slower the rate of temperature increase should be applied to the piece.” Heat up slowly to avoid cracking in use.
