Product Overview

This high-purity aluminum rod, manufactured to Puratronic™ standards with 99.9995% metals basis purity, is engineered for demanding laboratory and industrial applications where minimal impurities are critical. The 22mm diameter ensures structural integrity while maintaining ease of handling for machining or experimental setups. The ultra-low impurity levels make it suitable for semiconductor fabrication, thin-film deposition, and advanced materials research where trace contaminants could compromise results. The rod’s uniform composition and consistent diameter provide reliability in repeatable experiments or production processes. Its high thermal and electrical conductivity, combined with excellent corrosion resistance, further enhance its versatility in specialized applications. The 25cm and 5cm lengths offer flexibility for customization, allowing precise cutting to meet specific project requirements without excessive waste.

FAQs

1. What is the significance of the Puratronic™ grade in this aluminum rod?

The Puratronic™ grade indicates an ultra-high purity level of 99.9995%, ensuring minimal trace impurities that could interfere with sensitive applications like semiconductor manufacturing or analytical testing.

2. Can this aluminum rod be machined or cut to custom lengths?

Yes, the rod can be easily machined or cut to desired lengths using standard metalworking tools, though precautions should be taken to avoid contamination during processing.

3. Is this aluminum rod compatible with vacuum environments?

Due to its high purity and low outgassing properties, this aluminum rod is suitable for use in vacuum chambers and high-vacuum applications.

4. How should this aluminum rod be stored to maintain its purity?

Store in a clean, dry environment, preferably in its original packaging or a sealed container, to prevent oxidation or contamination from moisture and airborne particles.

5. Are there lower-purity alternatives available for general lab use?

For applications where ultra-high purity is not critical, lower-grade aluminum rods (e.g., 99.9% purity) may be more cost-effective while still offering good performance.
