Ceramic Fiber Plug for Smooth Metal Pouring
A high-performance refractory component designed for precise metal tapping control in foundries, steel mills, and metallurgical processes.
Core Functions
Seals & Regulates Flow: Acts as a thermal-resistant plug to safely control molten metal release from furnaces, ladles, or tundishes.
The Ceramic Fiber Plug Tap Out Cone is a high-performance refractory component designed for controlled molten metal release in foundries, steel mills, and casting operations. Made from alumina-silica ceramic fiber, it withstands extreme temperatures (up to 1,260°C/2,300°F) while providing excellent thermal insulation and minimal heat loss.
Key features include:
Precise Flow Control: Ensures safe, leak-free tapping from furnaces, ladles, or tundishes.
Durability: Resists thermal shock, corrosion, and metal erosion, extending service life.
Non-Reactive: Prevents contamination of molten aluminum, copper, or steel.
Energy Efficiency: Low thermal conductivity reduces operational costs.
Available in standard and custom sizes, it suits applications like induction furnaces, continuous casting, and vacuum degassing. Certified to meet ASTM/ISO standards, it combines safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for industrial metalworking.
Tagline: "Engineered for precision in high-heat metal tapping."
