OP7015 Borosilicate Glass Rod

Borosilicate Glass Rod Description

Borosilicate Glass Rods are made from a special blend of silica and boron trioxide, which gives them exceptional resistance to thermal shock, chemical corrosion, and high temperatures. These rods are often used in the manufacturing of optical components, laboratory glassware, and high-performance equipment that requires durability in harsh conditions. Borosilicate glass rods also maintain their clarity and strength under extreme conditions, making them ideal for precision scientific and industrial applications.

Borosilicate Glass Rod Applications

• Optical Devices: Used in lenses, prisms, and other components requiring high clarity and thermal resistance.
• Laboratory Equipment: Employed in laboratory glassware such as test tubes, beakers, and rods due to their ability to withstand high temperatures and chemical exposure.
• Industrial Uses: Used in industries where high heat and chemical resistance are required, including chemical processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Borosilicate Glass Rod Packing

Our Borosilicate Glass Rods are carefully packed to avoid breakage and preserve their high quality during storage and transportation. Typically, they are packaged in secure, cushioned materials to ensure safe delivery.
