Laboratory Tube Furnace 14 Equal Diameter Silicon Carbide Rods

Silicon carbide rods are non-metallic heating elements whose resistivity changes with temperature in a non-linear manner. There is an inflection point in the resistivity of silicon carbide rods at around 800 degrees Celsius.
The greater the current applied to a silicon carbide rod, the higher its surface temperature. It is recommended to use the smallest possible surface load density (power). Please note that the current and voltage values recorded at the cold end are measured at 1000°C in air and may not correspond to actual usage. Generally, the surface power is determined based on the relationship between the furnace temperature and surface temperature, and it is advisable to use a surface power (W/cm²) that is 1/2 to 1/3 of the limit density.
For continuous use, gradually increasing the resistance can help maintain a longer lifespan.
Parallel connection is recommended whenever possible. If the resistances differ, connecting them in series may cause a concentration of load on the higher resistance, leading to rapid resistance increase and shortened lifespan.

Silicon carbide rods typically have diameters ranging from 8 to 60 mm and can be used as heating elements in high-temperature electric furnaces for industries such as ceramics, magnetic materials, glass, metallurgy, powder materials, rare earth chemicals, electronic components, metal processing, refractory materials, and research institutions. They are suitable for use in air, nitrogen, hydrogen, ammonia decomposition gas, inert gases, vacuum, and other atmospheres. Applications include pusher furnaces, mesh belt furnaces, car bottom furnaces, box furnaces, muffle furnaces, vacuum furnaces, lift furnaces, tube furnaces, crucible furnaces, atmosphere furnaces, etc.
