Quartz Rods
What Is a Quartz Rod?
A quartz rod is a solid cylinder of fused quartz glass used for structural supports, stirrers, optical light pipes, fiber-optic feed rods and precision machined components. Solid fused quartz combines high temperature capability with dimensional stability and — in ground or polished form — good optical transmission along the rod axis.

Rod Types and Options
- As-drawn rods for general support and stirring duty
- Centerless-ground rods for precision fit and assemblies
- End-polished rods for optical light-pipe use
- Machined rods — drilled, slotted or profiled via CNC machining
Applications
- Semiconductor — furnace support rods and fixture components
- Optical — light pipes and feed rods
- Laboratory — stirrers and apparatus supports
- Industrial — high-temperature structural pins and spacers
Quality Control
Diameter, straightness and surface condition are inspected per batch; CoC available on request (quality control).
FAQ
Can rods be ground to a specific diameter?
Yes — centerless grinding produces precise OD dimensions. [Confirm tolerance capability]
Can one end be polished?
Yes, single-end or both-end polishing is available for optical use.
