Sapphire Multi-Bore Capillary Tube
Multi-bore capillaries require bore position, hole count, wall thickness and inter-bore tolerance to be verified by cross-sectional inspection. Contact WEGITEK with your required specifications, quantity and drawings for a technical quotation.
Sapphire Multi-Bore Capillary Tube: Material Overview
Sapphire Multi-Bore Capillary Tube is considered for optical protection, semiconductor processing, crystal research, sensing, photonics and precision mechanical assemblies. Sapphire combines high hardness, chemical stability and broad optical usefulness with controlled single-crystal orientation. Final performance depends on geometry, surface state and mounting conditions. Sapphire tubes and multi-bore capillaries can serve precision feedthrough, sensor and high-temperature integration needs.
Multi-bore capillaries require bore position, hole count, wall thickness and inter-bore tolerance to be verified by cross-sectional inspection.
Engineering and Specification Considerations
Bore count/position, OD/ID, concentricity, straightness, wall integrity and end finish are critical.
- C/A/R/M orientation
- diameter or drawing
- thickness
- SSP/DSP
- optical surface quality
- chamfers
- coating and inspection method
Quality and Inspection Priorities
Engineering acceptance should be defined before order confirmation. Depending on grade and use, the inspection review may include:
- Crystal orientation
- inclusions
- surface scratches/digs
- roughness
- flatness
- thickness variation
- edge finish and optical transmission where relevant
Where possible, request the inspection method, measurement location and batch documentation alongside the numeric limit.
Applications and Selection Guidance
Potential application fields include optical protection, semiconductor processing, crystal research, sensing, photonics and precision mechanical assemblies. The final selection depends on thermal, electrical, optical and mechanical operating conditions. Share the process step and acceptance criteria to help the supplier evaluate feasibility.
Frequently Asked Question
Does sapphire orientation matter for a custom component?
Yes. The requested crystal plane and cut direction can affect processing, optical response, mechanical behavior and downstream fabrication. Confirm orientation with the end-use drawing.
What should be included in a request for quotation?
Send the part name or drawing, material grade, diameter/size, thickness, orientation, surface finish, quantity and required tests. If you have a target delivery date or acceptance specification, include it at the outset.
Specification status: Product descriptions are reference information, not a published stock or performance guarantee. Final specifications, manufacturing options, price and delivery require written confirmation.
