Extruded Graphite for Vacuum Furnace Heating Elements
Vacuum furnace specialty graphite finds widespread use in high-temperature heating fields, such as ceramics and non-ferrous metal high-temperature smelting. For vacuum furnaces, we can supply graphite materials for manufacturing various graphite components. Particularly, our extruded graphite blocks are suitable for a range of applications, including heating elements, fixtures, crucibles, and sintering disks.
Extruded Graphite For Heating Elements
The choice of extruded material for heating elements is crucial for the proper functioning of vacuum furnaces. Reasons for using extruded graphite to process heating elements in vacuum furnaces:
1. This graphite is ideal for various thermal applications due to its thermal properties. For example, graphite boasts high thermal conductivity, allowing graphite heating elements to efficiently transfer heat to the materials they come into contact with.
2. The Graphite is highly resistant to chemicals. It is not corroded by many harsh organic and inorganic compounds that can quickly corrode other materials.
3. Graphite heating elements are crafted from high-purity synthetic graphite, providing excellent temperature uniformity, service life, and mechanical strength.
4. Graphite heating elements can withstand harsh conditions and operate stably over an extended period. Manufacturers of graphite materials like SHJ can deliver high-quality graphite specifically for heating elements.
SHJ’s specialty graphite fulfill a wide range of customer needs for processing graphite heating elements. Graphite heating elements can be conventionally processed using large graphite blocks (with medium-coarse extruded graphite) as the raw material.
Our graphite materials can process both regular and large-sized elements.
In addition to the extruded graphite mentioned above, isostatic graphite is also commonly used for vacuum furnace heating elements.
We offer suitable specialty graphite types to our customers based on their requirements or our extensive experience. Graphite materials can be further impregnated to enhance density, strength, and oxidation resistance.
