Product overviewLabotemp Tube Furnace FMT-18 is a precision horizontal tube furnace for ultra-high-temperature processing up to 1700°C (working temperature ≤1550°C). It is fitted with a corundum tube (∮80 mm), a 440 mm standard heating zone, 1200 mm total tube length and a 80×440 mm chamber. MoSi₂ heating rods, B-type thermocouple, PID control and 30-segment programmable profiles deliver ±1°C accuracy and ±5°C uniformity with 0–20°C/min ramps. The chamber is insulated with alumina ceramic fiber.
