Andrews Glass produces, designs, and shrinks precision bore tubing in round, capillary, fluted, tapered, rectangular, square, and hexagonal shapes. Complex configurations, including internal threads, end belts, and other changes in bore size are produced to exacting specifications. Working in borosilicate, fused quartz and other types of glass, we maintain tolerances up to + 0001" in a wide range of inside diameters and lengths.
Andrews proprietary shrinking technology allows you to take full advantage of the unique chemical and mechanical characteristics of glass (especially low expansion borosilicate glass and fused quartz). Characteristics like transparency, optical stability, chemical inertness, impermeability, nonporosity, light transmission, low thermal conductivity, dialectic properties, and compressive strength greater than steel make glass the ideal material for use in solving a variety of engineering problems.
