Global supplier manufacturer of shaped and monolithic refractories, Prefabricated parts.long-term supplier of RHI.

Corundum castables, which are high-alumina refractory materials containing a significant proportion of corundum, are widely used in the working lining of ladles in steelmaking due to their excellent properties.  一、Key Properties of Corundum Castables: High Refractoriness、Excellent Mechanical Strength、Superior Wear and Abrasion Resistance、Thermal Shock Resistance、Chemical Resistance、High Density and Low Porosity. Applications in Ladle Working Linings: 1.Corundum castables are used as the main working lining in ladles due to their ability to withstand high temperatures and resist wear.  2.These castables are particularly effective in the slag line and impact areas of the ladle, where the lining is subjected to intense wear and chemical attack from slag and molten steel. 3.Corundum castables are used to line the bottom and sidewalls of the ladle, providing a robust and heat-resistant barrier that protects the ladle shell and enhances thermal efficiency. 4.In some cases, corundum castables are used as a safety layer behind the main working lining. 二、Benefits of Using Corundum Castables in Ladle Working Linings: Extended Service Life、Improved Steel Quality、Enhanced Thermal Efficiency:、Reduced Maintenance Costs、Operational Reliability 三、Installation and Application Process: 1.The ladle shell is cleaned and prepared to ensure proper adhesion of the castable material. 2.Corundum castables are mixed with water or other binding agents according to the manufacturer's specifications to achieve the desired consistency. 3.The castable material is applied to the ladle lining using methods such as casting, gunning, or ramming. Care is taken to ensure even coverage and proper compaction. 4.After application, the castable lining is allowed to cure and dry, forming a solid and durable refractory layer. 5.The cured lining is inspected for any defects or weak spots, and necessary repairs are made to ensure the integrity of the ladle lining. #refractory
