PRODUCT TYPE OF SET LBS REQ’D PER CU.FT. CONTAINERS REC’D MAX TEMP F° DESCRIPTION
TEX KAST 97T Hydraulic 175-180 50#/Bag 3400 A tabular based 97% alumina conventional vibratable castable. The higher alumina content gives the castable more resistance to metals and slag than other products with a lower alumina content. It is high in density, has low open porosity, excellent hot and cold strengths. Excellent for areas of extreme abrasion and chemical attack and is very low in iron and silica.
TEX KAST T Hydraulic 170-175 50#/Bag 3350 A 93-94% alumina conventional vibratable castable. The higher alumina content gives the castable more resistance to metals and slag than other products with a lower alumina content. It is high in density, has low open porosity, excellent hot and cold strengths. Applications include carbon black furnaces, electric arc furnace delta section and vacuum degassers.
TEX KAST 90T Hydraulic 175-180 50#/Bag 3300 A 89-90% alumina conventional vibratable castable. The higher alumina content gives the castable more resistance to metals and slag than other products with a lower alumina content. It is high in density, has low open porosity, excellent hot and cold strengths. This product performs well in many applications where more expensive higher alumina castables have been previously used.
TEX KAST 80 Hydraulic 160-165 50#/Bag 3200 A 80-82% alumina conventional vibratable castable offering high refractoriness and strengths. Tex Kast 80 resist erosion, thermal shock and slag attack exceptionally well. Applications include severe service, tundish covers, and lead furnace arches.
TEX KAST 30 Hydraulic 140-145 50#/Bag 3000 A 64-65% alumina conventional castable based on high quality mullite aggregates and a high purity, low iron calcium aluminate binder. It is available in coarse, regular and fine grain sizing's. It can be cast, gunned, or troweled into place. Applications include ladles, burner rings, ceramic kiln cars and rotary kiln firing hoods.
TEX KAST SUPER Hydraulic 135-140 50#/Bag 2800 A 55% alumina general purpose castable designed for use in areas where extra temperature resistance and volume stability is required for severe service conditions. It has good resistance to moderate abrasion. Applications include reheat furnaces, kilns, boilers and soaking pits.
TEX KAST C Hydraulic 130-135 50#/Bag 2600 A 50% alumina abrasion resistant castable. Applications include transfer lines and ducts, cyclones and dust collectors, vessel linings, and catalyst carrying lines.
