VESUVIUS ZYACAST™ fused silica, aluminium resistant launders and filter boxes are available in pre-cast form to suit individual cast house launder shapes and designs.
Alternatively ZYACAST™ can be supplied in a self-levelling formulation for easy installation at site.
ZYACAST™ launders have been specifically designed for the efficient transfer of molten aluminium in cast houses, exhibiting superior non-wetting properties and excellent thermal shock resistance. The smooth, non-friable surface finish of ZYACAST™ launders ensure that aluminium skulls formed between casts are easily removed without damaging the launders.
For rapid transfer launders between melting and holding furnaces, dense ALUGARD® castables provide excellent resistance against erosion and mechanical wear. ALUGARD® also provides excellent linings for in-line degassing units.
For continuous casting launders that remain full of molten aluminium 24 hours per day, VESUVIUS has developed a special high purity, low density alumina based ALUGARD® product, which can be supplied as a castable for site installation or in pre-cast form.
