Abrasive Blasting Nozzles and FGD Nozzles
Hexoloy® Silicon Carbide and Norbide® Boron Carbide ceramics deliver excellent wear and corrosion resistance, maintaining nozzle shape and flow consistency in abrasive or chemically aggressive environments such as slurry handling and cutting.
The extreme hardness of sintered silicon carbide and hot pressed boron carbide makes these materials excellent choices for nozzles and wear pads in high wear applications.
Hexoloy® SA SiC and Norbide® B4C nozzles outlast tungsten carbide and demonstrate proven performance in abrasive blasting and atomization applications.
Silit® SKG SiSiC and Hexoloy® SA SiC spiral nozzles are frequently used for flue gas desulfurization (FGD) in power plants.

FAQ
Both silicon carbide and boron carbide are lighter materials than tungsten carbide, while also offering superior hardness. These key factors enable easier nozzle handling and longer service life.
Boron carbide is lighter and harder than silicon carbide.
Hexoloy® SiSiC and Silit® SiSiC offer excellent chemical corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance. This makes these materials ideally suited to the harsh environment typically found in flue gas desulfurization units in power plants.
