CF Pinch-Off Tube – OFHC Copper 🛠️

High-purity copper tubes for reliable sealing in vacuum systems.

Our CF Copper Pinch-Off Tubes are made from ultra-pure OFHC (Oxygen-Free High Conductivity) copper, designed for use in high and ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environments. Ideal for creating permanent, leak-tight seals by mechanical pinch-off.

The CF flange is optional and reusable, allowing you to minimize waste and reduce recurring costs.

Product Features

• Material: OFHC Copper (≥ 99.99% purity)
• Tube Length: 160mm (6 inches)
• Diameter Options:
  1/2" – suitable for pneumatic pinch-off tools
  3/8" – suitable for manual pinch-off (e.g., hand tools)
