Pyrotek Pyrocast AR FINE Castable Refractory
Categories:	Ceramic; Oxide; Silicon Oxide
Material Notes:	Pyrocast AR Fine is a fine-grain fused silica castable, offering similar insulation properties, yet lighter weight that the Pyrocast AR formulation. Pyrocast AR Fine is suited for thin wall castings, or cast shapes with less than one inch cross section thickness. Parts cast form Pyrocast AR Fine are heat-treated as part of the manufacturing process to remove free and combined water. Applications Thimbles Hot-top table sections Transfer and stub troughs Launder linings Filter boxes Sheet ingot spouts Control pins Furnace tubes Advantages Dimensionally stable Thermal shock resistant Easily cleaned Extremely durable Smooth cast surface Preheating unnecessary Non-wetting Information provided by Pyrotek.
