Part number 4SHP062X12 is a High Pressure Tubular Gauge Glass with an outside diameter of 5/8 inch and a length of 12 inch. A tubular gauge glass gives operators a direct, unpowered visual read on liquid level inside a tank or boiler.
The compound resists thermal shock, chemical attack from water and steam, and internal pressure. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Borosilicate gauge glass is specified for precision-formed bore and wall thickness, borosilicate construction for thermal shock resistance. Applications involving service beyond the rated pressure and temperature or abrasive cleaning call for a different compound.
Common environments for this compound include food and beverage processing, water treatment, and process tanks and vessels.
Reference part number 4SHP062X12 when ordering; the item is sold by the piece. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
