Product & Applications
Electrically conductive sintered alpha silicon carbide (SiC) is
dense and has superior resistance to oxidation, corrosion,
wear and chemicals. The single-phase silicon carbide also
has high strength and good thermal conductivity. Some of the
products we handle are listed below:
- Grinding media: dimension: ½" diameter X ½" high
- Seal ring: a variety of sizes
- Sandblasting nozzle
- High power resistor
- Induction heating susceptor: can be used in air up to
1600oC
- Burners and crucibles
