Stannex Tin Oxide is manufactured in the United Kingdom to the highest quality using very high purity Tin Oxide (this in itself is produced from 99.9% pure virgin tin).
Our electrode systems are used in:

Electric Boosting Systems

High Quality Production of the following glasses:

• OPTICAL Glass
• OPTHALMIC Glass
• CRYSTAL (4-33% PbO)
• TECHNICAL (up to 65% PbO)
• LCD, LED & TFT Glass
• Redox Sensitive Glasses
• Feeder Channels

At Glassworks we have MANY years experience with both Tin Oxide and Connector systems. We are able to help with design and placement of electrodes along with appropriate Connector Systems to endure the perfect electrode connection and in many cases to ensure that The Tin Oxide Electrode no longer determines the furnace life.

Further information is available on request

Glassworks offer 3 different types of Electrode material. Each material has qualities to ensure their suitability for certain types of glass and melting.

• Stannex E
• Stannex ELR (Low Resistance)
• Stannex D (No Cooper)

All electrodes are manufactured to the highest standards and quality.

GLASSWORKS HOUNSELL LIMITED was formed in April 2000 by the merger of Hounsell Engineering Limited (Founded in 1887) and Glassworks Equipment Limited (founded in 1964) with a view to consolidating its position and further expanding its operations.
