Description
Spacers (SP parts) are fabricated in either Stainless Steel (SS) or Alumina (Al2O3) and are available in sizes that are compatible with Kimball Physics Series B or C eV Parts Size Series with several available length options. The components are essentially short tubes /spacers which slip over either the ceramic or metal rods, and are intended as an additional means of spacing the metal plates in the eV Part constructs. Rigid structures can be made by alternating metal and ceramic spacers on one or more ceramic rods. Since metal spacers are less costly than ceramic spacers, it is frequently desirable to use a long metal spacer in series with a small ceramic spacer to provide wide insulated gaps between plates
