1700°C Small Chamber Box Furnaces

The 1700°C Small Chamber Box Furnace with independent control is designed for applications that require extremely rapid heat-up rates, with 3500 watt models reaching 1700°C in as little as 15 minutes. Choose from two popular chamber sizes, each with a fully programmable independent controller, ordered separately.
