what is split tube furnace?
Split tube furnaces are a popular choice for laboratories as they are extremely versatile. They consist of a furnace body which is split in half, attached by a hinge. This allows easy access to place and remove samples and a range of tube diameters can be used with split tube furnaces.

HiTempHorzSplitTubeOur split tube furnaces can be manufactured as single zone configurations for applications that require a single sample, or multi-zone configurations when multiple samples are needed.

We can use a variety of different heating elements in these furnaces, including silicone carbide (SiC) or molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) for higher temperatures. For maximum thermal efficiency, these furnaces have insulating vestibules at the end of heating chambers and graded layers of insulation.

If the tube furnace will need to be relocated often, our vertical split tube furnace is mounted on a heavy duty stand that is portable, allowing easy movement
