Mega Industries waveguide twists provide accurate electrical and mechanical interface. We recommend the use of twists when mechanical system packaging requires a change in the plane of polarization. Our compact three-step twist exhibits a VSWR less than 1.05:1 over a 10% bandwidth. Lower VSWR’s or increased bandwidth can be realized by utilizing a five-step twist. See the table below for frequency range and electrical performance.
We also offer twist angles of 30 degrees, 45 degrees, and 60 degrees. Continuous or smooth twists are available in the smaller sizes. Please see the Quote Request form below to explore commonly used materials, paint and flange configurations. Please Contact Mega Sales if you do not see the configuration your high power microwave application requires.
