Vacuum Coating Materials

High purity 28 mm spare disc targets for sputter coaters. 

The PELCO easiShaper is an electric motor driven carbon rod sharpener which offers easy, quick and clean carbon rod shaping for carbon evaporators which are using either 1/4", 1/8" or 3/16" stepped carbon or graphite rods.

These are softer (graphite type) carbon rods, 55mm long, pre-shaped and ready for use in the vacuum coating unit. Special prices valid while stocks last. 

Carbon rods for vacuum coating. Special prices valid while stocks last. 

Evaporation boats

These boats accommodate several aperture discs which should be heated in a vacuum chamber to bright red heat for cleaning.

Tungsten filaments offer a convenient ready prepared, reproducible evaporation sources.

High purity wires and materials for use in evaporation and shadow casting. Special prices valid while stocks last. 

Indium wire for high vacuum seals in clean systems. Special prices valid while stocks last. 

This is a high precision hand-held tool for shaping carbon rods to make cylindrical tips.

A simple sharpener that gives a good conical point on carbon rods.

Evaporation of braided carbon fibre gives a very reproducible film thickness.

Protective goggles with coloured glass in flip-front for observing the evaporation process.

Replacement spare parts including glass chambers, gaskets, valves and vacuum gauges can be supplied for current and older models of Agar, Polaron/Bio-Rad/VG and Edwards coating units.
