Thermal Ceramics Cerachrome Felt
Categories: Ceramic; Oxide; Silicon Oxide

Material Notes: Cerafelt products are lightweight, flexible refractory fiber insulators formed from exceptionally pure refractory oxides and bonded with an organic binder.

These products are recommended for a wide range of high temperature industrial applications such as expansion joints in

kilns, furnaces, and boiler walls, and high-temperature gaskets. When used as a gasket, Cerafelt exhibits excellent resistance to penetration from molten metals, both ferrous and nonferrous. This unique property, coupled with its ease of fabrication, makes it ideal for ingot stool seals, stopper rod gaskets, and gaskets for aluminum billet casting.

Features:

  • Lightweight and flexible
  • Low thermal conductivity and heat storage
  • Applications:

  • Expansion joints
  • Gaskets
  • Molten metal resistant insulation
  • Information provided by Thermal Ceramics
