How to choose high temperature casting?

When selecting a suitable high temperature casting material, many factors must be comprehensively considered, such as operating temperature, chemical composition, physical properties, wear resistance, manufacturing methods, budget and supply reliability, to guarantee, that the selected casting materials will perform well in the specific conditions and will have a long service life.

How to choose high temperature casting？

Operating temperature

First of all, needs to be determined, For what operating conditions will the refractory casting be used?. Different castings suit different temperature ranges, guaranteeing, that the selected castings will be able to maintain stability and durability at the expected operating temperature.

Chemical composition

The chemical composition of a refractory casting directly affects its performance and durability. According to application requirements, select the appropriate chemical composition, such as oxides, nitrides, carbides, etc., to guarantee, that the casting can effectively resist corrosion and wear under certain conditions.

Physical properties of high temperature casting material

Consider physical properties, such as density, thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion of castings, to make sure, that they can be harmoniously combined with other materials in actual use, and avoid problems, caused by inconsistency of physical properties.

Wear resistance and corrosion resistance

According to actual use, select refractory castings with sufficient wear resistance and corrosion resistance, especially in high temperatures and aggressive environments.

Manufacturing method

Different refractory castings may require different manufacturing methods, including vibration, filling, spraying etc. Make sure, that the chosen casting is suitable for the desired manufacturing method.

Budget Considerations When Selecting High Temperature Casting

The price of refractory castings varies depending on the type, characteristics and source of supply. Consider choosing a casting with suitable characteristics to suit your budget, and also consider its service life and maintenance costs.
