Carbon Bonded SiC Crucible
Malcolm G. Stevens, Inc supplies brand name crucibles by only the leading crucible manufacturers that have a proven reputation of quality, knowledge and the business moral to back up their products. Our crucibles have received high reputations from users around the world for their excellence in quality and performance. We STOCK all size crucbible for NEXT DAY DELIVERY.
Sic crucibles are constructed of clay graphite and carbon-bonded silicon carbide and are available in wide variety of shapes and sizes. Glazes are available for most non-ferrous applications and in high and low temperature varieties.
Through the years and countless experiences, our crucible manufacturers have been developing melting and holding molten light alloys such as aluminum and copper with characteristics of high flux and oxidation resistance. The wide range of application, gas furnace, oil furnace, electric furnace and induction furnace of high/low frequency also enables our crucibles to meet users various operations.
