LOW CEMENT CASTABLES
VITCAST 1400LCC - AL
VITCAST 1400LCC
VITCAST 1600LCC This material can also be used for pre-cast shapes like 1400LCC but additionally can be used for burner quarls, ladle linings, top ring blocks around the open tops of brick lined vessels and the upper side walls in aluminium melting furnaces.
Bauxite based low cement castable developed specifically for use with molten aluminium. It contains an additive which reduces wetting in contact with molten aluminium and therefore resists corundum growth.
A versatile low cement castable often used for pre-cast shapes to replace special shaped firebricks. Examples are pre-cast interlocking tiles for boilers and for periphery blocks on kiln car bases.
