1200°C Three-Zone Split Tube Furnace
This three-zone split tube furnace features a side entry extensometer port and is manufactured with a wire-wound element for maximum operation up to 1200°C (2200°F). The elements are uniquely formed to provide optimum temperature uniformity, ensuring conformance with testing standards such as ASTM E21, ISO 6892-2, EN10002-5,and EN2002-2. The top and bottom furnace endplates are durable, provide excellent insulation, and include a 20 mm (0.787 in) diameter hole for use with pull rods.

Three-Zone Temperature Control Systems
Temperature control systems are designed for controlling the heat output of furnaces. The control systems can be configured to operate nearly any furnace with any one of several different thermocouples types. Three zone control systems are designed for heat-only furnaces with three separate zones of heating elements, and typically three different thermocouples to control those zones.

Quick-Change Adapters
Quick-change adapters are typically used in hot tensile applications to provide simplified load train installation. They consist of a button-head washer that is threaded onto the room temperature end of a pull rod. The washer and pull rod are then inserted through a slot in the adapter body.
