Quartz ingot

Heraeus supplies fused quartz block and ingot material in various dimensions and grades. These solid fused quartz blocks generally feature low bubble contents and high material homogeneity due to the multiple hot processing steps involved during production.
Electrically fused silica block material is manufactured in an outer diameter range of 110 mm to 350 mm. As so called MF material – characterized by an extremely low bubble content and high viscosity – electrically fused quartz block material is available up to an outer diameter of 650 mm. This high-quality MF material is also provided in rectangular shape in various standard dimensions.
Flame fused material is available as a round or rectangular solid fused quartz block in a number of standard sizes up to an outer diameter of 670 mm.
Annealing, surface grinding, and cutting are offered upon request.
