Material Notes:
Pyrocast AR Plus is a fused silica refractory castable inert to molten aluminum and its alloys. Parts cast from Pyrocast AR Plus are heat-treated to ensure that free and combined water are removed. Because Pyrocast AR Plus is lighter than molten aluminum, it floats, minimizing the potential for refractory inclusions.ApplicationsHot-Top table sections Transfer & stub troughs Launder linings Filter boxes Sheet ingot spouts Control pins Furnace tubes AdvantagesThermal shock resistance High erosion resistance High service temperature Smooth cast surface Dimensionally stable Preheating unnecessary Easily cleaned Non-wetting Information provided by Pyrotek.
