Windows from glass ceramic:

The glass ceramic is the material, which combines the quality of glass and ceramic. It is transparent, with gentle yellow color and it has the resistance to high temperature till 700°C continuously and it holds the temperature shock from 20°C do 800°C .

This material is suitable as the substitute of quartz ones, into the furnaces etc.. We supply these windows in the thickness 4 mm or 5 mm . It is possible to order the thinner ones.

Windows from technical quartz:

These windows are suitable for thermo resistance ones into the furnaces till 900°C. Technical melted quartz is clear for the observe with eyes.

We recommend to choose the thickness of quartz from 1/5 to 1/10 of dimensions of plates..

 

Windows from glass SIMAX:

This glass is very similar to PYREX one and it is suitable for thermo resistance portholes into the furnaces. This glass is very resisted to chemical materials, too.

Basic information about glass SIMAX

 

We supply the windows from another materials, too, as float glass, sapphire (α-Al2O3), Ge or ZnSe, in dimensions and form according to the orders.
