fluoroelastomer and nitrile O-rings, hydrocarbon lubricant, felt, rare earth magnets, silicon nitride, phenolic resin
and carbon-fibre reinforced epoxy resin. Further to this, the machined from solid chamber, the top interface plate,
and the junction piece are surface treated with Alocrom 1000 on both internal and external surfaces. Alocrom 1000
is a chromate conversion coating with a thickness of < 1 micron. The total weight of the coating on the chamber is
approximately 20 mg.
