FAQ

What are the benefits of bonded SiC bricks over castables?

There are numerous benefits owing to the superior properties of bonded SiC refractories. For one, service life is greatly extended due to its enhanced resistance to oxidation, chemical attack, mechanical impact and wear. Also, customers experience fewer catastrophic failures such as hearth heaving, brick pull-out, and severe spalling. This leads to a longer and more predictable refractory life with lower total cost of ownership.
