REFRACTORY MATERIALS FOR CUPOLA FURNACES

Teide offers a wide range of products for iron-containing casting furnaces in different varieties: Long-life cupolas:

3/4-month campaigns without changing the refractory material. Intense external cooling demands refractory materials of excellent mechanical, chemical performance and high resistance to slag in a wide variety of temperatures.Short-life classical cupolas (several hours): What is required are low-cost, easy-to-install and easy-to-break-up refractory materials, making their application in small-sized furnaces quite comfortable. Coke-free cupolas:

These are furnaces with lower combustion chamber and cooled griller, together with ball or ellipsoid heat accumulators requiring materials, able to withstand high temperatures, abrasion and chemical aggression. Middle-campaign cupolas (weekly):

In addition to above characteristics, it is necessary to make it as easy as possible to break up the refractory material that is being used and to provide an easy and prompt setup. Nodulization and casting ladle – forehearth
