Salamander Silicon Carbide Crucibles

8.jpg

High quality carbon-bonded silicon carbide crucibles manufactured using the latest roller-forming techniques and are designed to cater for a range of non-ferrous melting applications.

Applications

Intended for aluminium melting in oil-fired furnaces, melting copper-based alloys in gas and oil-fired furnaces, melting precious metals and non-ferrous alloys in low to medium frequency induction furnaces. 

Typical Metal Casting Temperature 

  • 850 - 1250°C (1562 - 2280°F)

Performance Characteristics 

  • Fast melting speed through high consistent thermal conductivity

  • Excellent thermal shock resistance

  • High resistance to oxidation

  • Good erosion resistance

  • Good resistance to corrosive attack by chemical treatment agents

 Identification

Crucibles are coloured dark red and utilise the code X. e.g. AX800. TPX901. 

Pattern Range

Salamander Silicon Carbide crucibles are available in a comprehensive range of shapes and sizes to suit most end user requirements. Heavy wall (TPX) versions can be supplied for increased life in arduous applications and a selection of fixed pouring spouts with optimised profiles is offered where required for tilting furnaces. 

Quality

Salamander crucibles are manufactured from premium grade raw materials under an ISO 9001:2008 quality management system.
