We provide a
complete package of monolithic refractories, insulating and safety backup
lining materials and all accessory materials needed to line your furnace.
We provide unsurpassed support with in-house engineering and technical
services, and on site installation and trouble shooting support.
We recommend
a fully engineered system designed to allow for even wear throughout
the refractory lining. Many times this requires that different
refractory materials be used in high wear areas. The end
result is the most cost-effective lining possible.
|
| Our complete package has allowed us to remain the
leader in coreless furnace refractories in many major markets worldwide.
Our promise is to "Be There Worldwide."

Primary
Linings
Top

We
normally supply dry silica based refractories with a wide range
of premixed boron oxide or boric acid binders. MINRO-SIL®
and MINRO-SIL®
LD (Low Dust) are our most common products. We also can supply
silica based, zircon enhanced products like DRI-VIBE®
400Z for especially aggressive applications. Mullite (DRI-VIBE®
590A), Andalusite (DRI-VIBE®
790A), and alumina based DRI-VIBES®
(DRI-VIBE®
683A, DRI-VIBE®
697A) are also available.
MINRO-SIL
2001®- A new silica based refractory designed to minimize erosion in
coreless' melting or holding ductile base iron.
This product has delivered performance increases of 30% - 50% over our
traditional MINRO-SIL®RAM 1001 in ductile applications.
DRI-VIBE®
461S and 462S were recently introduced for furnaces where extreme thermal
cycling is a problem. These are fused silica formulations that have
proven to increase lining life it these type operations.

Specialties
Top

These
include DRI-VIBE®
refractories used with MINRO-SIL®
to decrease wear in specific areas (e.g. elephant foot). These
compositions include DRI-VIBE®
400Z, DRI-VIBE®
149Z, and other zircon, chrome oxide, or alumina containing compositions.

We have designed
specific products for this area of the furnace where mechanical wear is a
problem. DRI-VIBE® 101 STC-FR is a stainless steel needle reinforced
silica composition that will not break. DRI-VIBE®88A is commonly used
due to high strength at low temperatures. Other DRI-VIBE®
compositions, wet ramming compounds, high alumina plastics, castables, and
high bond MINRO-SIL®
are also commonly supplied. |
Grouts
Top
of Page
We offer the
largest selection of silica and alumina grouts. MINRO-SIL®
GROUT S14 has been a standard for more than 30 years. MINRO-SIL®
GROUT S15 was recently developed for better workability.
Our
alumina grouts are unique. These include colored grouts
that allow the coil to be easily distinguished from the working
lining during lining removal. We also have grouts with non-ceramic
fibers that allow for rapid dryout during grout heatup.
MINRO-AL®
GROUT 263AF, MINRO-AL®
GROUT 763AF, MINRO-AL®
GROUT 563A, and MINRO-AL®
GROUT 663A are a few of these grouts in our product offering.
MINRO-AL®
CAST A44 remains one of the only grouts designed for placement by
casting. This high alumina product has been a standard for many years.

Maintenance
Top
of Page
We offer many
materials including plastics, ramming compounds, and washes. Our plastics
range from 70% - 95% alumina and are manufactured in both fine grain and
construction grade consistencies. These plastics include MINRO-AL®
PLASTIC A76, MINRO-AL®
PLASTIC A85, MINRO-AL®
PLASTIC A89, and MINRO-AL®
PLASTIC A91. We have plaster versions of each when maximum workability is
required.
Chrome
alumina plastics provide maximum resistance to mechanical and
chemical attack. STEEL-PACK 90CR is the best chrome alumina
refractory available.
Commonly
used ramming compounds include MINRO-SIL®
PATCH S67W, MINRO-MUL A58, MINRO-AL®
RAM A53W, MINRO-AL®
RAM A60W, and a wide variety of zircon, chrome, and alumina based
materials. Washes include MINRO-Z WASH Z77 (zircon) and MINRO-AL®
WASH 668A (alumina).

We provide a wide
range of fiberglass cloth and mica products for your slip plane.
MINRO-WEAVE CLOTH is available in several dimensions. It is also
available in a heat treated or sintered form. This product is easily cut
and produces significantly fewer airborne fibers during installation.MINRO-MICA products include a wide variety of
compositions and thickness'.

MATRICAST
TUFFLOOR
is used for foundry floor applications. This spall resistant,
high strength castable can be installed quickly, and placed in service
after 24 hours of air-drying. It will improve safety and reduce
floor maintenance in areas subject to molten metal splash, slag,
and other intermittent high temperature exposures.

We inventory a
complete line of safety lining bricks, thermocouple wires, and everything
else needed for your furnace. We can also provide melt in forms,
installation equipment, and everything else you require.
