Thermal Ceramics Kaolite 1800 Super Lightweight Insulating Castables
Categories: Ceramic; Oxide

Material Notes: Super lightweight Kaolite castables reduce both the quantity of heat storage and heat transfer through the lining producing significant savings in furnace fuel consumption. The lower densities of these vermiculite based Kaolite castables reduce the amount of supporting furnace steel work required and provide more insulation with a thinner lining. These products can be cast, poured, or gunited.

Kaolite 1800 is a super lightweight, low thermal conductivity vermiculite castable designed for both backup insulation and some hot face applications up to 1800°F. Kaolite 1800 contains a calcium-aluminate cement which gives it better high-temperature stability when compared to Kaolite 1600. ovens and ductwork lining.
