| The integrity of the ceramic-to-metal joint relies on the precision
to which the individual parts are made. To meet these requirements the
Company utilises C.N.C. machines to manufacture the wide variety of
metal components required. This enables us to offer high quality stainless
steel vacuum flanges to any of the international standards. Custom designs
can also be accommodated.
Ultra High Vacuum Flanges
We offer both fixed and rotatable stainless steel EN 1.4307 (304S11)
or EN 1.4406 (316LN) flanges to ISO 3669. These are fully interchangeable
with other flanges manufactured to the same standard. All flange designs
are suitable for continuous operation in the range -190°C to +450°C.
Gaskets and seals
Oxygen-free High Conductivity (OFHC) copper gaskets can be supplied
in standard, annealed and silver plated versions.
Gold wire seals and compatible flanges are available on request.
O-Ring flanges
The low temperature, quick release alternative to U.H.V. flanges. Manufactured
in stainless steel to ISO specification ensures compatibility with
other flanges made to the same standard.
