Salamander Silicon Carbide Crucibles
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.
