Semicorex - Model SMX0005 - Silicon Carbide Cantilever Paddle

A silicon carbide cantilever paddle is a specialized component used in furnaces for various thermal processing. It is designed to suspend or support samples or materials within the high-temperature environment of the furnace while allowing for easy access, manipulation, and heat transfer. Recrystallized silicon carbide is chosen as the primary material for the silicon carbide cantilever paddle due to its excellent thermal and mechanical properties. Silicon carbide can withstand extremely high temperatures (up to 1600°C or more) and offers good thermal shock resistance, making it suitable for demanding furnace applications. Silicon carbide cantilever paddles are commonly used in various high-temperature applications, such as crystal growth, heat treatment, sintering, and semiconductor processing. Their robustness, thermal stability, and ease of sample manipulation make them an essential component in furnace systems that require precise control over temperature and material positioning.
