| AMETEK Specialty Metal Products (SMP) Nickel-Iron alloy systems are gas-free special combinations of metals designed to have expansion rates closely matching those of certain ceramic materials, including glasses. They are widely used by the electrical and electronic industries for glass-to-metal seals in electron tubes, transistors, headlights, thermostats, and similar applications. 952 Glass-Sealing Alloy has a 50.5% Nickel-Iron composition and is especially suited for seals for some of the new special soft glasses. Its thermal expansion is very constant up to 1049°F (565°C). Advantages - Low gas content reduces the possibility of outgassing over time.
- Thermal expansion is consistent.
- Significantly low levels of surface oxides reduce die wear.
- Controlled chemistry ensures superior glass sealing characteristics.
