Dust Catcher and Glass Cleaning
As the gas cleaning system maintains top pressure in the blast furnace, can your traditional wear material hold up against leaks?
Extending the life of equipment and maximizing operational levels within the blast furnace requires wear resistant materials that can withstand the harsh conditions. Wear resistant materials from Saint-Gobain offer high abrasion resistance and significantly longer campaign life over traditional materials of construction. Typically, systems can be retrofitted with little or no modification to the existing systems and can be applied during shorter outage periods.
Saint-Gobain products offer unparalleled abrasion, corrosion, oxidation and thermal shock resistance over traditional refractories and metallic wear materials and will effectively reduce cost per ton.
