Why Choose Stainless Steel for Vacuum Chambers?
Stainless steel is the industry standard for high-vacuum and ultra-high-vacuum systems due to its superior strength, low permeability, and ability to withstand high bake-out temperatures. Grades such as 304L and 316L provide exceptional corrosion resistance and minimal outgassing when properly cleaned and electropolished. Stainless steel maintains structural stability under vacuum load, handles complex welds with high integrity, and supports extensive CF flange configurations. This makes it ideal for UHV research, particle physics, synchrotron applications, and any environment requiring extreme vacuum performance and long-term durability.
