Macor Machinable Glass Ceramic Bar
MGC Machinable Glass Ceramic gives you the performance of a
technical ceramic with the versatility of a high performance
plastic. MGC glass ceramic is an outstanding engineering material
and is machinable with ordinary metalworking tools.
- It is an excellent electrical insulator
- It has a high maximum use temperature (800°C continuous, 1000°C
peak)
- It has a low thermal conductivity and is a useful high
temperature insulator
- It is strong and rigid; unlike plastics it does not creep
Features of MGC in Unqiue Components
- Use MGC and forget about mould costs, firing shrinkage and diamond
machining for high tolerance work
- Use MGC for your products or use it in your production process
- Use MGC for one component or for many
MGC is an invaluable material to have ‘on the shelf’. It is often
quicker and cheaper to make a special part rather than try to find
that special item somewhere else. If you do not have your own
machining facilities, or your workshop is fully occupied, send your
drawing to UNIPRETEC who can quote for your finished requirements as
well as advise on your application and design.
MGC's unique properties find many varied applications:
- Electronicsmiconductor industry (Precision coil formers, high
voltage insulators)
- Laser industry (Spacers, reflectors and cavities in laser
assemblies)
- High vacuum industry (Thermal breaks, coil supports and vacuum
feedthroughs)
- Aerospace/space industry (Space Shuttle door and window retaining
rings, satellite electrical supports)
- Nuclear industry
