Glass-to-metal seal applications
Glass-to-metal seals are found in a vast array of products and industries, including:
The primary purpose for glass to metal seals is to reliably allow electrical or optical signals to pass through vacuum-tight housings or enclosures. However, these seals also serve the critical function of preventing moisture or gas intrusion and leakage that could cause damage or failure of the encapsulated electrical components and systems, semiconductors, electro-chemicals, pyrotechnics, or other substances.
By performing reliably in harsh operating conditions such as extreme temperatures, moisture, high pressures, or corrosive chemicals, GTMS technology facilitates longevity, performance, and efficiency improvements as well as innovative designs. At their core, these seals provide reliable connection and protection that enables the manufacture of high-quality and long-lasting hermetically sealed components or equipment. The versatility of this technology can be seen in the multitude of functions, designs, and sizes of GTMS components used in a broad range of applications.
