CFC Base Trays
Carbon fiber composite (C/C) base trays for vacuum furnace heat treatment — lightweight, thermally stable, non-contaminating. Flat or ribbed profiles machined to your hot zone dimensions. Operating temperature up to 2200°C.
CFC Base Trays are precision-fabricated from carbon fiber reinforced carbon (C/C composite) and are designed to support workpieces directly on the furnace hot zone floor or on fixture shelves during vacuum, inert atmosphere, or partial pressure heat treatment cycles.
Compared to solid graphite trays, CFC trays offer approximately one-third the weight, significantly reducing thermal mass and enabling faster heat-up and cool-down cycles. The low thermal inertia translates to energy savings and shorter cycle times in production environments.
Available in flat, ribbed, and perforated designs — ribs improve stiffness under load, while perforations allow gas circulation during atmosphere processes. All trays are machined to match your furnace hot zone footprint; custom lengths, widths, and load ratings are standard.
