E-Beam Starter Cones/Sources

E-Beam Starter Cones/Sources are available to fit most commercial E. Beam Guns. Due to the large array of sizes, we ask that, if possible, the gun manufacturer and part number be specified when ordering or inquiring.

If you use crucibles in your evaporation process, please see our crucible page for your crucible size and type.
