Lock Rings

The lock ring works essentially as a strong low-compliance spring; when locked on a rod, the metal far from the rod is in compression while the metal just adjacent to the rod is in tension.

As a special high-temperature, spring-grade stainless steel is used to make the lock rings (not stainless steel type 304), the rings are mildly magnetic. This residual magnetism is normally too low to cause any difficulties except when working with electrons at very low energies.

The lock rings have the advantages of being easy to apply with a lock ring tool, of providing a very strong clamping action, and of requiring a minimal amount of axial space along the rod.

Alumina Rod,

Product available:

Non-conductive elements used mostly for mounting electrically isolated structures. They can be connected toScrew Clamps.

B-Series Rod: 0.062" dia.

See Print above. (Note: print contains stainless steel rods as well.) The third picture on the left shows asampling ofother Kimball Physics insulating eV Parts.

For threading parts a variety of lengths and sizes of ceramic rod (RO parts), along with alumina spacers (SP parts) of standard lengths of 0.5a, a, 1.5a, and 2a are available.

Several different methods may be used to secure the rod ends. One method utilizes horseshoe-shaped stainless steel lock rings (LR parts), which clamp onto any rod at any position desired without need of a groove.

An alternative method to secure the rod ends is to use screw clamps (SC parts). Some types can hold several rods at once. Screw clamps are non-magnetic and hold firmly even at temperatures up to 1000C; however, they are more bulky than the lock rings and the screws may freeze to the nuts after high temperature operation in UHV. Screw clamps may be used to fabricate very rugged filament mounts. They may be spotwelded to either plates or brackets. By use of an alumina spacer and a special screw, the two halves of the clamp may be insulated electrically from one another.

Another method of securing the rods, especially suited to small diameter rods, is to fuse the end of the rod into a small ball using a high temperature (greater than 2000C) torch. Normally this can only be done on one end of a rod: if both ends are fused, the structure cannot be disassembled later.

As a final means of securing rods, wirenuts (WN parts) have been made available. These wirenuts consist of closely wound coils which barely slip over the ceramic rods and have been given a kink to insure a bakeout proof friction fit. (The kink must be supplied by the user according to the amount of friction desired.) Wirenuts may be made from either stainless steel type 304 or from molybdenum, but since high temperature operation is often desired, the wirenuts normally furnished are molybdenum.

Triplenuts Molybdenum

As a convenient means of joining long metal rods at right angles, special three-coil triplenuts (TN parts) have been produced. The axes of two of the three coils make an angle of about 15 degrees while the third lies between the other two, off to one side, and has its axis perpendicular to the plane containing the other two. To use triplenuts, a rod is first passed through the shorter third coil, then a second rod is passed through the two longer coils (15 degree angle). Pulling the two longer coils into line locks the second rod by friction, and simultaneously reduces the turns diameter on the third coil. This reduction locks the first rod. Ceramic rods may also be locked together using the triple nuts.

Stainless Steel Balls

Stainless steel plates may be positioned using spherical balls (BA parts). Balls allow closer hole alignment than rods, and generate structures which are inherently resistant to twisting. Balls have the disadvantages, however, of being considerably more expensive, harder to assemble, and less flexible with regard to plate spacing.

  • Shape Round
  • Thickness 0-5-10mm
  • Color Grey
  • Application Industrial Use
  • Finishing Polished
  • Feature Corrosion Proof, Durable, Easy To Fit

Small compression springs (CS parts) have been provided which fit precisely over rods or tubes to take up the differential expansion. The springs are made of tungsten, and thus retain their spring properties at high temperatures. These springs are also useful in making quick-change filament holders and other types of snap-together assemblies.

Spacers

Spacers (SP parts), with outside diameters of 1.875a and inside diameters of 1.27a, are essentially short tubes which slip over either the ceramic or metal rods, and are intended as an additional way of spacing metal plates. Rigid structures can be made by alternating metal and ceramic spacers on one or more ceramic rods. Since metal spacers are less costly than ceramic spacers, it is frequently desirable to use a long metal spacer in series with a small ceramic spacer to provide wide insulated gaps between plates

Products include:

Stainless Steel SpacersSS-SP-B-XXX (XXX for various lengths) (16 parts/std pkg)SS-SP-C-XXX (16 parts/std pkg)

Insulating Balls

Stainless steet plates may be positioned using spherical ceramic balls (BA parts). Balls allow closer hole alignment than rods, and generate structures which are inherently resistant to twisting. Balls have the disadvantages, however, of being considerably more expensive, harder to assemble, and less flexible with regard to plate spacing.

The choice between assembling structures using balls or rods, and the choice of means to secure rod ends when rods are used, generally depends on the application. It is often desirable to mix techniques.

Alumina Tubing,

As an aid to running electrical wiring through a structure, alumina tubing parts (TU and XTU parts) have been provided which have the same outside diameter as the rods. The inside diameter of each tubing size is just big enough to clear the outside diameter of the next smaller size. Thus, parts can be nested according to the ingenuity of the user. The shorter tube parts are also useful in making high vacuum plug-in connectors, and rigid filament mounts (along with the clamps), and as bushings to insulate mounting holes. The tubing may also be used to pass threaded rods through a structure and then to load the structure in compression using machine nuts (MN parts). The use of threaded rods, however, is not as convenient as the other techniques described.

Alumina Rod,

Product available:

Non-conductive elements used mostly for mounting electrically isolated structures. They can be connected toScrew Clamps.

B-Series Rod: 0.062" dia.

See Print above. (Note: print contains stainless steel rods as well.) The third picture on the left shows asampling ofother Kimball Physics insulating eV Parts.

For threading parts a variety of lengths and sizes of ceramic rod (RO parts), along with alumina spacers (SP parts) of standard lengths of 0.5a, a, 1.5a, and 2a are available.

Several different methods may be used to secure the rod ends. One method utilizes horseshoe-shaped stainless steel lock rings (LR parts), which clamp onto any rod at any position desired without need of a groove.

An alternative method to secure the rod ends is to use screw clamps (SC parts). Some types can hold several rods at once. Screw clamps are non-magnetic and hold firmly even at temperatures up to 1000C; however, they are more bulky than the lock rings and the screws may freeze to the nuts after high temperature operation in UHV. Screw clamps may be used to fabricate very rugged filament mounts. They may be spotwelded to either plates or brackets. By use of an alumina spacer and a special screw, the two halves of the clamp may be insulated electrically from one another.

Another method of securing the rods, especially suited to small diameter rods, is to fuse the end of the rod into a small ball using a high temperature (greater than 2000C) torch. Normally this can only be done on one end of a rod: if both ends are fused, the structure cannot be disassembled later.

As a final means of securing rods, wirenuts (WN parts) have been made available. These wirenuts consist of closely wound coils which barely slip over the ceramic rods and have been given a kink to insure a bakeout proof friction fit. (The kink must be supplied by the user according to the amount of friction desired.) Wirenuts may be made from either stainless steel type 304 or from molybdenum, but since high temperature operation is often desired, the wirenuts normally furnished are molybdenum.

Triplenuts Molybdenum

As a convenient means of joining long metal rods at right angles, special three-coil triplenuts (TN parts) have been produced. The axes of two of the three coils make an angle of about 15 degrees while the third lies between the other two, off to one side, and has its axis perpendicular to the plane containing the other two. To use triplenuts, a rod is first passed through the shorter third coil, then a second rod is passed through the two longer coils (15 degree angle). Pulling the two longer coils into line locks the second rod by friction, and simultaneously reduces the turns diameter on the third coil. This reduction locks the first rod. Ceramic rods may also be locked together using the triple nuts.

Stainless Steel Balls

Stainless steel plates may be positioned using spherical balls (BA parts). Balls allow closer hole alignment than rods, and generate structures which are inherently resistant to twisting. Balls have the disadvantages, however, of being considerably more expensive, harder to assemble, and less flexible with regard to plate spacing.

Spacers

Spacers (SP parts), with outside diameters of 1.875a and inside diameters of 1.27a, are essentially short tubes which slip over either the ceramic or metal rods, and are intended as an additional way of spacing metal plates. Rigid structures can be made by alternating metal and ceramic spacers on one or more ceramic rods. Since metal spacers are less costly than ceramic spacers, it is frequently desirable to use a long metal spacer in series with a small ceramic spacer to provide wide insulated gaps between plates

Insulating Balls

Stainless steet plates may be positioned using spherical ceramic balls (BA parts). Balls allow closer hole alignment than rods, and generate structures which are inherently resistant to twisting. Balls have the disadvantages, however, of being considerably more expensive, harder to assemble, and less flexible with regard to plate spacing.

The choice between assembling structures using balls or rods, and the choice of means to secure rod ends when rods are used, generally depends on the application. It is often desirable to mix techniques.

Parts are manufactured to standard dimensions with high tolerances and may be used to modify or add to existing commercial high vacuum apparatus with little effort. Ordinary hand tools are the only additional tools needed to use eV Parts. For permanent applications, a laboratory spot-welder may be used. eV Parts come in standard packages where QTY/PKG varies by product type. Quantity discounts available for multiple packages in the eV Parts series.

High-Quality Vacuum Materials

eV Parts are manufactured from the highest quality materials available and can easily withstand 500C bakeouts. Standard parts are made of chemically cleaned 304 stainless steel and insulators are made of best grade 98/99% pure vitreous alumina. Refractory metal fasteners and springs are available for non-magnetic structures. Other materials including tantalum or gold plated stainless are available on request.

Assembly

eV Parts may be used to build rigid, self-supporting, and dimensionally stable assemblies. eV Parts are self-aligning by virtue of their mounting holes and remain locked in place even over extended bakeouts. Parts are assembled on centerless-ground ceramic rods and secured using any of a variety of fasteners: lock rings, screw clamps, strap nuts, friction wirenuts, and ordinary machine screws. Parts fit reliably and make the accurate alignment of lenses, slits, and apertures straight-forward. Assemblies may be disassembled quickly for modification, salvage, or cleaning. Permanent assemblies can be spot-welded.

Alumina Tubing,

As an aid to running electrical wiring through a structure, alumina tubing parts (TU and XTU parts) have been provided which have the same outside diameter as the rods. The inside diameter of each tubing size is just big enough to clear the outside diameter of the next smaller size. Thus, parts can be nested according to the ingenuity of the user. The shorter tube parts are also useful in making high vacuum plug-in connectors, and rigid filament mounts (along with the clamps), and as bushings to insulate mounting holes. The tubing may also be used to pass threaded rods through a structure and then to load the structure in compression using machine nuts (MN parts). The use of threaded rods, however, is not as convenient as the other techniques described.

Product families include: Al2O3-TU-B-XXX (XXX is the length) Al2O3-TU-C-XXX
