Glass Material 13
Compression Sealing Glass
Elan 13 is the designation for our compression sealing glass. It pairs extremely well with alloy 52 pins mated with a stainless steel housing. Since it does not contain lead, it is highly utilized in the European market to meet RoHS compliance requirements. Elan 13 is used for a variety of applications including feedthroughs, headers, and hermetic packages. In many industries like automotive, aerospace, and defense, contracts are only awarded with the use of Elan 13 glass.
