Sialon Thermocouple Protection Tubes

What are Sialon Thermocouple Protection Tubes?

Syalon protection tubes made from a unique blend of silicon nitride and aluminum oxide, referred to as Si3N4, silicon nitride, or Syalon. They are designed to protect temperature sensors within harsh industrial environments.

How Do They Work?

The tubes work by encasing and protecting thermocouples, which are sensitive temperature-measuring devices. Their low thermal expansion coefficient ensures that temperature measurements remain accurate, despite exposure to extreme temperatures, chemicals, and physical abrasion.

Key Advantages

• Outstanding thermal shock resistance.
• High wear resistance to chemical corrosion.
• Capable of withstanding extreme conditions, such as aggressive chemicals and abrasive environments.
• Maintains accuracy in temperature measurement due to low thermal expansion.

Our tubes come in three different types, each with specific properties tailored for various applications:

Syalon 101 ("The Allrounder"): Offers exceptional strength and toughness, suitable for environments with rapid temperature changes.
Syalon 050 ("The Wear Resistant"): Designed for high performance in wear conditions, offering high hardness and wear resistance along with a unique degree of toughness.
Syalon 110 ("The Heat Resistant"): Known for high-temperature performance and corrosion resistance, it is ideal for extreme temperatures and heavy loads, withstanding continuous operation at 1450°C and peak loads up to 1600°C.
