What is tamping mass?

Ramming mass refers to a shapeless refractory material, which is made by stuffing, that is, artificial or mechanical, and hardens when exposed to heat above normal temperature. It is made by mixing fire-resistant filler, powder, binder, additives and water or other liquids.

Classification of tamping mass

According to material classification, distinguish between ramming masses with a high alumina content, clay packing mass, magnesium filling mass, dolomite packing mass, zirconium and silicon carbide carbon refractory packing mass.

Purpose and advantages of tamping mass

Ramming compound is used to fill the gap between the cooling equipment of the kiln body and the masonry or as a filler for the leveling layer of the masonry. The ramming mass has good chemical stability, resistance to erosion, abrasion, spallation and thermal shock. It is widely used in metallurgy, production of building materials, smelting of non-ferrous metals, chemical and other manufacturing industries.

Characteristics of refractory ramming materials for furnaces

Fireproof padding material – this is a special material, used in high temperature environments for lining high temperature equipment, furnaces and roasting units. Printed materials have plasticity in shape and can be cut and molded to fit shapes, required high temperature equipment. Besides, fireproof padding materials are also heat resistant, corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical strength.
