SCHOTT products created by the further processing of glass tubes or rods achieve highly impressive technical properties across a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and forms. This makes them suitable for many demanding and specialist applications.
DURAN® glass tubes and rods are formed into the desired shape by lathe processing at very high temperatures. The glass tube is held and evenly heated from all sides while rotating. Once the desired temperature range is achieved the glass tube can be reshaped or joined with other pieces. Products created by this process include Y-pieces, T-pieces, spirals, and complex manifolds, to name a few.
Beyond that, additional processing steps like drilling, cutting, grinding, flange forming, etc. are also possible – all made directly by SCHOTT.
