Alumina Loaded Glasses

Hybralox™ is the trade name for a series of hybrid alumina-loaded glasses developed to be harder, stronger and have a higher thermal conductivity than normal sealing glasses. 

Hybralox™ is self-glazing and can be metallised. 

Compared to Alumina ceramic, Hybralox™ tooling piece part costs are often lower. 

Hybralox™ pre-forms are now being used for a wide variety of integrated circuit seals or as a replacement for glass-to-metal or ceramic-to-metal seals. 

Four Hybralox™ Grades are available: 

• Hybralox™ 5000 Series
  Seals directly to itself or to Kovar without metallising.

• Hybralox™ 6000 Series
  Seals Kovar to alumina bases.

• Hybralox™ 7000 Series
  Used both for Kovar to Kovar, and Kovar to alumina bases.

• Hybralox™ 9000 Series
  Used for compression seals.
