Castable refractory is a type of refractory material that can be cast into a desired shape or form. It is used in industrial furnaces and kilns as a lining material for high temperature applications. The material is made from clay, silica, alumina, or other refractory materials and can be formed into large pieces or thin sections. Castable refractory is strong, heat resistant and can withstand temperatures up to 3000°F. It also provides excellent thermal shock resistance, which makes it ideal for furnace applications. Castable refractory is also very versatile and can be used in various applications.
Refractory mortar is a highly specialized product used in the repair and maintenance of refractory linings in high temperature applications. It is a blend of refractory cements, aggregates and other ingredients, designed to have the proper flowability, setting time, strength, and thermal shock resistance needed for refractory linings. Refractory mortar is designed to be workable so that it can be easily shaped and formed around the damaged area, ensuring a long lasting repair of the refractory lining. It is important to use the proper mortar for any given application as many mortars are not suitable for all kind of applications.
Refractory Cement is a type of material used for lining high-temperature applications. It is made from a mixture of refractory aggregate, usually clay, hydrated lime, and cementitious binder. The cementitious binder binds the refractory aggregate together and gives the cement its strength and durability. Refractory cement is designed to resist temperatures up to 3000°F and is often used to line furnaces and kilns, fireplaces, and chimneys. It is also used in the production of castable refractory products such as fire bricks.
