Spin Coater Chucks
Solvent-Safe Chucks for Vacuum-Free Spin Coating
Spin coater chucks to accommodate popular substrate sizes
Overview | Specifications | Gallery | Resources and Support
We stock a range of vacuum-free spin coater chucks compatible with the Ossila Spin Coater. The interchangeable chucks have a push-fit base that fits firmly and securely onto the spin coater coupling. All of our chucks have a recess which holds the substrate securely in place while allowing excess solution to drain away.
Our multi-substrate chucks use our new rimmed edge design to help improve air flow uniformity within the spin bowl and to reduce solvent build up within the bowl. With improved and simplified drainage channels, this chuck reduces buffeting during spin coating and improves the stability of the chuck during spinning. In addition, finger cutouts allow for the easy removal of chucks allowing you to change them for different experiments.
We can produce custom chucks to fit your substrates. Simply contact us with your requirements and we can determine the right chuck for you. Specify three dimensions (length, width, and depth) when ordering a custom chuck.

Reinventing the Spin Coater Chuck
The bigger, better chuck provides an all-in-one solution if you have multiple sizes of substrates to coat. Plus improved aerodynamics and mechanical performance produce more uniform films.
