Durable Acrylic Bell Jars allow for full view of the degassing article.
Old fashion glass bell jars are extremely dangerous due to the ease associated with causing cracks that result in breakage. Our acrylic bell jars are constructed of Heavy Acrylic. This bench top sized vacuum chamber is designed to be a rugged unit with 1/2″ thick walls and true o-ring seals for deep vacuums and long life. Our customers use these chambers in vacuum degassing small batches of resins, epoxies, vacuum encapsulation, vacuum impregnation, prototyping and research in vacuum processes and methods. With chambers still in service that are over 25 years old, these chambers will withstand decades of daily testing and use.
All chambers are capable of dynamic vacuums of 29.92 inch(Hg) or better (10-4 torr)
Designed, fabricated and tested with uncompromising attention to cost and detail.
