7000GT Series Gas Tight Atmosphere Furnace

Product Information

Inert Atmosphere GT Box Furnaces

Bench and Floor Models for hardening, drawing, preheating, annealing, brazing, normalizing, and special applications under inert atmosphere to 2100°F. The GT Models are designed with a continuously welded furnace shell, gasketed door assembly, and atmosphere inlet and outlet ports for operation with a positive flow of higher atmosphere rates. These models are best suited for constant operation to maintain a dry refractory environment in the work area to minimize oxidation on workloads. The GT system is a less expensive alternative compared to our atmosphere furnaces equipped with alloy muffles (AM Models).

Ruggedly constructed and rated for work loads up to 50 lbs. per square foot of hearth area. All models are completely wired, assembled, test-fired, and shipped ready for connection to the main power supply and regulated atmosphere pressure of 5 PSI. Compact design, fast installation, and simple, safe, dependable operation. Available in over thirty standard model sizes.
