Easy-to-Machine Alumina-Bisque Ceramic Rods and Discs

- Color: White
- Max. Temperature: 2475° F
- Fabrication: Semi-Fired
- Porosity: See table
- Compressive Strength: 9,000 psi
Often used to create prototype components, this temperature-resistant ceramic comes semi-fired so it can be machined using conventional metalworking tools. Fire it to create a denser, harder material with increased electrical and mechanical properties.
