Steel Fiber Castable

Refractory Steel Fiber Reinforcement Castables

Description

Steel fiber castables are monolithic refractory materials, mainly used in high temperature industrial applications, with excellent strength, durability and resistance to thermal shock, abrasion and erosion. Steel fiber castables are made by mixing a refractory aggregate (such as high alumina, silica or magnesia sand) with a cement binder and steel fibers.

Steel fibers can be made from a variety of materials, including carbon, stainless and alloy steels. Adding these fibers to the mixture improves the mechanical properties of the castable, such as tensile strength, toughness, cracking and spalling resistance.

Features of Steel fiber castables

High temperature resistance

Steel fiber castables can withstand extremely high temperatures, making them ideal for use in high-temperature applications such as furnaces, kilns and other thermal processing equipment.

High resistance to thermal shock

The addition of steel fibers to the castable increases its resistance to thermal shock, preventing cracks and other damage during rapid temperature changes.

Abrasion and erosion resistance

Steel fiber castables are highly resistant to abrasion and erosion, making them ideal for use in applications where the refractory lining is exposed to abrasive materials or high-speed airflow.

High strength and durability

The addition of steel fibers gives this castable superior strength and durability to withstand the stresses of high temperature applications for extended periods of time.

Easy to install

Steel fiber castables can be easily poured or gunned into place for fast, efficient installation of refractory linings in a variety of applications.

Improved resistance to cracking and spalling

The steel fibers in this castable help improve its resistance to cracking and spalling, thus reducing the need for frequent maintenance and repairs.

Reduced thermal conductivity

The addition of steel fibers to the castable also helps to reduce its thermal conductivity, thereby improving energy efficiency and reducing heat loss.

Application of Steel fiber castables

Furnaces

Steel fiber castables are commonly used in the walls, floors and roofs of industrial furnaces for their excellent resistance to high temperatures and thermal shock.

Kilns

This castable is used for kiln linings, especially for the production of ceramics, glass and other materials that require high-temperature processing.

Incinerators

Steel fiber castables are used in incinerators for combustion chambers and other high-temperature areas to withstand the corrosion and abrasion of waste materials.

Power plants

Steel fiber castables are also used in boilers and other high-temperature equipment in power plants to provide excellent resistance to thermal shock and abrasion.

Petrochemical industry

Steel fiber castables are also used in the petrochemical industry in reactors, furnaces and other high-temperature equipment used in the production of chemicals and other materials.

Cement industry

Steel fiber castables can be used in cement kilns and other high temperature equipment for cement production.

Metallurgical industry

Steel fiber castables are used in ladles, intermediate ladles and other high-temperature equipment for the production of steel and other metals in the metallurgical industry.
