Glass Type: Borosilicate
Description
Pyrex(R) 7740 is Corning’s trade name borosilicate glass. It has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and good heat shock resistance. Pyrex(R) can be used as a substitute for SCHOTT Borofloat(R) in most cases. CGQPI can CNC mill, drill, cut, lap, and polish Pyrex(R) to any dimension, shape or surface finish.
