Carbon Bonded Working Linings
Benefits of Vesuvius solutions
- Improved corrosion resistance
- Cleaner steel
- Reduced CO2 emissions
- Energy savings
- Potential to increase ladle capacity
Engineered materials
Supermag* range of standard and low carbon steel ladle products
Low-carbon material technology
- Low carbon: reduces the potential for carbon pick-up in the steel melt
- Low conductivity: offers lower heat transfer and energy losses from the ladle
- Excellent slag resistance: comparable to high carbon containing products
- Optimized structural flexibility: to maintain good resistance to thermo-mechanical cracking and spalling
