Pyrotek Pyrocast AR PLUS Castable Refractory
Subcategory: Oxide, Silicon; Oxide
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. Applications - Hot-Top table sections
- Transfer & stub troughs
- Launder linings
- Filter boxes
- Sheet ingot spouts
- Control pins
- Furnace tubes
Advantages - Thermal shock resistance
- High erosion resistance
- High service temperature
- Smooth cast surface
- Dimensionally stable
- Preheating unnecessary
- Easily cleaned
- Non-wetting
