Ideal Vacuum Cube 12 x 12 x 12 in. Aluminum Vacuum Chamber Frame. This is a 12 x 12 x 12 inch bare vacuum Cube frame, the core of an Ideal Vacuum Cube modular chamber. It is machined from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aluminum so there are no welds to leak or break. A Cube plate, with or without ports, is mounted to each of the six frame sides with 1/4"-20 stainless steel screws. The frame has drilled and tapped holes which accept the mounting screws. Once all six plates are installed, the chamber is complete. The plates can be removed, replaced, or reused as needed to reconfigure the chamber to new requirements. Mounting holes are reinforced with stainless steel inserts so Cube plates can be swapped without fear of damaging the frame. This frame allows a user to build a 12 x 12 x 12 modular Cube chamber from scratch. Please see our other listings for a variety of 12 x 12 x 12 in. preconfigured chamber development kits. A complete 12 x 12 x 12 chamber requires: Cube frame 12 x 12 x 12 Cube hardware kit (P108176) Six Cube plates Optional accessories including feet, viewing windows and doors, thermal, and optical plates Please download the Cube plate installation manual for installation instructions. Use the Cube plate maintenance and service toolkit (P1010554) to assemble a Cube.

Ideal Vacuum Cube 12 x 12 in. Coupling Kit Joins Two Cube Frame Faces. This 12 x 12” Cube coupling kit allows two Cube frames to be tightly joined face-to-face on their 12 x 12” faces without any intermediate plumbing or fittings. Same sized Cube faces can be coupled. For example, a 12 x 12 x 12” Cube frame can be directly coupled to a 12 x 12 x 12” frame or a 6 x 12 x 12” frame, as long as they are coupled on the 12 x 12” side. The coupling kit consists of a 6061-T6 aluminum Cube frame coupler with two O-rings, and several 304L stainless steel barrel type, coupling draw bolts. The frame coupler is sandwiched between the two Cube frames and acts just like a flange centering ring. The coupler makes the seal between the two Cube frames and uses the patented Ideal Vacuum Taper-Seal™ design. The draw bolts rigidly clamp the two Cube frames together. The number of chamber configurations possible with Cube coupling kits is virtually limitless. Long, odd-shaped, and multi-Cube chambers are easy to construct with this accessory. Please download the Cube coupling kit user manual for installation instructions. Features: Couples two 12" x 12" Cube faces No extra tubing or fittings needed Includes dual O-ring frame coupler Includes 8 draw bolts Mounts in any orientation Can join these Cube frames on 12 x 12” face: 12 x 12 x 12 6 x 12 x 12
