Thermal Ceramics Kaocrete B Dense Castable
Categories: Ceramic; Oxide

Material Notes: Kaocrete B is a more plastic material than most refractory castables. It is an excellent plastering material, preferred for patching linings and baffles. Recommended only for relatively thin sections. Kaocrete B has extremely low rebound when gunned.

Features:

  • Recommended use limit up to 3000°F (1649°C)
  • Aggregate chemistry and grain sizing
  • High purity binder systems
  • Installed by cast, gun or plaster
  • Applications:

  • Around water-cooled boiler tubes
  • Boiler ash hoppers
  • Kiln cars
  • Piers
  • Car bottoms
  • Seal tanks in FCCU vessels
  • Burner blocks
  • Ladle metallurgy lance material
  • Information provided by Thermal Ceramics
