Ideal Vacuum Cube Quick Knob Assembly to Make Hinged Cube Plate Doors Fast and Easy to Open. These Quick Knobs are designed to work with the chamber hinge kit (P106868) to make opening Cube plate and viewing window doors open and close easily. Each Quick Knob assembly includes 1 Quick Knob (connected to fastener) and a 1 1/4"-20 fastening bolt. For all Cube doors, it is recommended to use 4 quick knob assemblies to minimize possible leaks.

Ideal Vacuum Cube Hinge & Hardware Converts Any Cube Plate Into a Door. This Ideal Vacuum Cube hinge assembly is used to transform a standard vacuum cube plate or viewing window into an operable door. The hinges are designed to fit 6 x 6, 9 x 9, or 12 x 12 vacuum Cube plates or viewing windows. Hinges are machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum. The hinge pin is made of 304 stainless streel. Required number of hinges: (1 ea) for 6 x 6 plates (1 ea) for 9 x 9 plates (2 ea) for 12 x 12 plates This Cube door conversion kit includes: Aluminum hinge and pin Mounting hardware A Quick Knob Assembly is available (P107936) so that the new door can opened and closed quickly and easily (without having to remove screws).

Ideal Vacuum Cube Hinge & Hardware Kit Converts Side-By-Side Plates Into Doors. This Ideal Vacuum Cube hinge assembly is used to convert side-by-side plates on coupled Cubes into operable doors (see second image). The hinge is located between the two plates and doors are opened one-at-a-time. Door plates must be screwed down. Quick knob assemblies cannot be used with these hinges. The hinges are designed to fit 6 x 6, 9 x 9, or 12 x 12 vacuum Cube plates or viewing windows. Hinges are machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum. The hinge pin is made of 304 stainless streel. Required number of hinges: (1 ea) for 6 x 6 plates (1 ea) for 9 x 9 plates (2 ea) for 12 x 12 plates This Cube door conversion kit includes: Aluminum hinge and pin Mounting hardware

Ideal Vacuum Cube 6 x 6 Vacuum Chamber Blank Plate No Ports with Internal Optical Breadboard. This is an Ideal Vacuum Cube 6 x 6 inch blank plate without ports. The plate is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and powder coated blue. It has an internal optical breadboard for mounting test items or fixtures. Blank plates are the least expensive Cube plates and are used for the bottom of Cubes or any other Cube sides where ports are not needed. Features: 6 x 6 plate 6061-T6 aluminum Blue powdercoat Blank plate without ports Internal optical breadboard Mounts in any orientation Directly mounts to frame size: 6x6x6 6x6x12 6x6x6 hexagon 6x6x12 hexagon 6x6x12 octagon This plate can also be mounted on any 9x9 or 12x12 plate with a plate adapter kit.

Ideal Vacuum Cube 6 x 6 Viewing Window Plate Assembly 3/8" Tempered Glass. This is an Ideal Vacuum Cube 6x6 inch vacuum chamber standard, low-iron, tempered glass viewing window plate assembly. It is designed to fit our modular Cube chambers. The standard tempered glass window viewing plate assembly is a popular Cube option, commonly used for general, direct observation of roughing or high-vacuum chamber processes and can be used to facilitate optical alignments of chamber components, observe degassing of fluids, or used to help teach in-vacuo processes by direct observation. The glass material is 3/8" thick, tempered, low-iron, high-clarity glass. Surface quality and flatness is Q4 per ASTM 1036-06 and 1048-04. The low iron content of the glass results in it having a slight blueish tint. This economical glass is unsuitable for high power laser experiments. We also offer high purity fused silica windows which are ground and polished to optical grade on both sides with a total thickness variation (TTV) of <10µm, a surface finish of S/D 40/20, and a surface roughness of Ra < 1 nm. These windows have appreciably improved transmittance, and a wider useful wavelength range than standard glass. Characteristics include extraordinarily low refractive index variations, low birefringence values, and an ultra-low thermal expansion coefficient. Fused silica is used for transmissive optics where a high laser damage threshold is required. Fused silica is used for optics operating in the deep UV, visible, and the near infrared wavelength range. Our Cube viewing windows employ an innovative, zero metal-to-glass contact design that holds the 3/8” thick window pane to an aluminum mounting plate. This cushioned window mounting system ensures operator safety and is less prone to leakage than other viewport window configurations, even at high vacuum pressures. Ideal Vacuum Cube windows are delivered fully assembled and use Viton O-rings and Teflon spacers. Bakeout temperatures to 150 °C are permissible. The viewing window plate assembly is interchangeable with other Cube plates and can be added to an Ideal Vacuum Cube system anytime. The viewing window can be implemented as a fixed side, or a door (with our optional hinge assembly and hardware kit, P106868) on the Cube chamber. The viewing window plate assembly, like all our other Cube plates, is built with our patented Taper-Seal technology which incorporates sloped sealing features to help prevent damage to the vacuum sealing surfaces. All Ideal Vacuum Cube plates are CNC milled from a single block of lightweight 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy. Before it ships, every viewing window plate assembly is visually inspected for window media imperfections, helium leak tested, cleaned and sealed, ensuring that it operates correctly, safely, and is ready for immediate installation upon delivery. NOTE: All viewing windows or viewports are inherently fragile, should be handled carefully, and always inspected before use. Ideal Vacuum viewing windows are designed and rated for VACUUM ONLY and can be susceptible to thermal shock if exposed to rapid temperature changes (>10° C /min). If directing a laser beam through the window, make sure the laser’s wavelength can be reasonably transmitted through the window’s material.
