Allowable Pressure of Quartz Tubes

The allowable pressure of quartz tubes depends on their manufacturing process and specifications. Generally, quartz tubes can withstand pressure in the order of several tens of megapascals. A quartz tube with a standard wall thickness of 1 millimeter can handle a pressure of 30 megapascals, while a tube with a wall thickness of 2 millimeters can withstand higher pressures.

To convert 49.3 MPa (the pressure tolerance of quartz tubes) into kilograms per square centimeter, the following calculation can be used: 1 MPa = 10.1972 kgf/cm², therefore, 49.3 MPa = 49.3 × 10.1972 kgf/cm² ≈ 502.13 kgf/cm², which is approximately 502.13 kilograms-force per square centimeter.

Thus, a quartz tube with an external diameter of 55 mm and a thickness of 5 mm can withstand a pressure of about 502.13 kilograms-force per square centimeter.
