Pasternack’s instrumentation grade waveguide sections are constructed of a high quality oxygen free hard copper with high

precision mechanical tolerances as tight as ±0.001” that ensures repeatable and consistent RF performance. Our commercial

and instrumentation grade waveguide sections range in size from WR-12 to WR-137 and include grooved and non-grooved

flanged designs. Standard lengths of Pasternack waveguide sections are offered from 3” to 12” in 3” increments and each

waveguide section is labeled for easy identification. Custom lengths are available upon request. Our commercial grade wave-

guide sections are painted blue and our instrumentation grade versions are hard gold plated over a copper flash.
