It really just boils down to how much heat you need and where the hell the tube is actually going to sit. We make both, but they&rsquo;re built for totally <a href="https://o-yate.net">different</a> jobs.</p> <h2 id="the-heavy-hitter-quartz">The Heavy Hitter: Quartz</h2> <p>Quartz is for when you need to get hot, and you need to do it <em>now</em>. Inside, there&rsquo;s a resistive filament—usually tungsten—tucked into high-purity silica. The magic here is that the quartz lets infrared radiation fly right through without wasting any energy. It&rsquo;s intense. If you&rsquo;re doing PET blowing or curing something that needs a concentrated blast of heat, this is your best bet. But here&rsquo;s the catch. Quartz is fragile. If a splash of cold water hits it or your mounting brackets are too tight, it can crack. It&rsquo;s a bit finicky. You have to get the fit exactly right, or you&rsquo;re looking at a burnout.</p>
