Casting Machinery

Castable Material solves refractory insulation problems.

Kaolite 2000-LI can be gunned or pumped into place for high temperature industrial processes. With its low iron oxide content, product can be used in carburizing furnaces or where high concentrations of CO gas are present. Strength-to-density ratio ranges from 11 to 12 psi/pcf. Low k values along with high cold crushing strengths of 450 psi at densities of 38-41 pcf provides insulation and...
