Aluminum UHV flanges

The Atlas Flange is made from 6061 T-6 aluminum and 316L stainless steel; it has been developed to allow sealing of aluminum UHV systems with stainless steel knife-edge flanges. The aluminum side welds to the chamber and the stainless side has the knife-edge seal. The flange is qualified to 10-10 torr and can be repeatedly baked to 250?C. Compatible with standard CF flanges, the Atlas is available in sizes from 1.33 to 16.5 in.
