For furnace users and equipment maintenance teams, CFC plates are usually selected for practical reasons. They are used where low weight, high-temperature stability, good strength-to-weight ratio and machinability are required. Common uses include hot zone liners, support plates, load plates, fixture base plates, spacers, replacement strips and custom machined furnace parts.

Please send the required thickness, length, width, quantity, application and working temperature. If drawings are available, we can also discuss cutting, drilling, slotting and custom machining before quotation.

Most CFC plate inquiries are based on clear dimensions. Some customers need standard CFC plates for stock preparation, while others need small cut pieces, strips or machined plates for a specific furnace chamber. To avoid mismatch, plate size should be confirmed together with thickness, tolerance, quantity and machining requirements.

If you need several different sizes, please list each thickness, length, width and quantity separately. This helps us check material use, cutting plan and quotation more accurately.

Material grade should be selected according to the plate application. A support plate, a furnace liner, a cut strip and a fixture base plate may require different strength, density, thermal behavior and machining design. The values below are typical reference data. Final selection should be confirmed according to operating conditions and structure.

CFC plates are used in vacuum furnaces and high-temperature systems where plate weight, thermal stability, machining form and service conditions need to be considered together. The same material may be used differently depending on whether it is a liner, a support plate, a load plate or a machined replacement part.

Graphite plates and CFC plates are both used in vacuum furnace hot zones, but they are not always selected for the same purpose. Graphite is widely used for machined blocks, plates and furnace components. CFC plates are often considered when a reinforced, lighter and more fracture-resistant plate structure is required.

The final choice depends on furnace atmosphere, working temperature, plate thickness, load condition, machining design and cost target. If you are replacing an existing graphite or metal plate, please send the old plate dimensions and working conditions for discussion.

To quote CFC plates accurately, we need more than the material name. Please provide the plate dimensions, quantity and application first. If machining is required, drawings or photos can help us check the cutting route, hole position, slot shape and edge treatment.

Request CFC plate size and quotation by sending thickness, length, width, quantity and furnace application. For machined C/C plates, please attach drawings whenever possible.

What are CFC plates used for in MIM vacuum furnaces?

CFC plates can be used as hot zone liners, support plates, load plates, fixture base plates, spacers, strips and cut-to-size replacement parts in MIM vacuum furnaces.

Can CFC plates be cut to size?

Yes. CFC plates can be cut according to required thickness, length, width and quantity. Machining such as drilling, slotting, chamfering and edge finishing can be discussed according to drawings.

What CFC plate thickness is available?

Available thickness depends on stock, production grade and custom requirement. Please provide the target thickness or drawing so that we can confirm the suitable option.

What is the largest CFC plate size you can supply?

The largest size can reach up to 2800 × 2100 × 300 mm, subject to material grade, production condition, quantity and machining requirement.

Can purified CFC plates be supplied?

High-purity treatment can be discussed when CFC plates are used in sensitive furnace environments. Please provide the application and purity requirement before quotation.

Are CFC plates the same as C/C plates?

In many purchasing contexts, CFC plates, C/C plates and carbon-carbon composite plates refer to similar carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix plate materials. The exact grade, structure and parameters should still be confirmed according to application.

What should I send for a CFC plate quote?

Please send thickness, length, width, quantity, application, working temperature, furnace atmosphere, machining requirement and drawing or sample photo if available.
