Engineered Ceramics - Parts

REPTON Setter Tiles

Light weight, high strength, ridge and reliable ceramic plates with a unique textured surface. Used for sintering a variety of electronic components, ceramics and powdered metals. The point contact permits shrinkage of green ware and elimination of gasses with out the use of setting sands.
