Description
Instec's HS1500G Hot Gas-Tight stage can heat samples to 1500°C and are ideal for the study of ceramics, metallurgy, geology and high temperature materials. Electrical feedthroughs and custom sample areas are also available. The HS1500G's gas-tight sample chamber helps to prevent sample oxidation at high temperatures.
