Fused Silica

Our fused silica material consists of sintered quartz glass high purity powder with a fine pore structure which has an extremely low expansion coefficient and thus a very good thermal shock resistance.

This material exhibits excellent features such as:

  • Higher strength and toughness to give a longer life without any surface deformation than the fibre reinforced composite material
  • Low thermal expansion which provides outstanding resistance to thermal shock
  • Good mechanical properties at high temperatures
  • These features ensure this material is the best material for use in our fused silica rollers

Our Fused Silica rollers are typically used in the following applications:

  • Insulation parts used widely in furnaces for solar and PDP (plasma display panel), LCD (liquid crystal display) industries
  • Conveyor rollers for glass manufacturing
  • Crucibles for polycrystalline silicon melting
