PRODUCT EXAMPLES

Hermetic Seals
Hermetic seals are used where a high integrity, electrically insulating joint is required. The components can be glass to metal seals or ceramic to metal seals depending on the application. Such seals operate at high pressure, vacuum, high voltage and at high temperature. The seals can also be used in less demanding applications where it is still necessary to maintain isolation between one environment and another.

Examples include:

Pressure
High pressure, 20000 psi (138 MPa) seals for an oil industry application

Thermal
A ceramic-metal assembly used in an experimental vacuum furnace, researching semiconductor materials

Electrical
Glass to metal seals in hermetic electronic packages

Vacuum
X-ray tubes and scanning electron microscope components
