Product Description
Boron nitride break rings for horizontal continuous-casting and molten-metal solidification interfaces.
Boron nitride break rings sit at a critical molten-metal and solidification interface in horizontal continuous-casting systems.
Thermal-shock resistance helps the ring tolerate the transition between hot melt and the cooled solidification zone; low wetting by compatible alloys helps limit sticking and build-up.
Product Features
- Thermal-Shock Resistance
- Low-Wetting Material Option
- Machined Ring Geometry
- Continuous-casting interface geometry
Typical Applications
- Continuous Casting — Horizontal continuous-casting break-ring assemblies: Supports controlled separation and flow at the hot/cold interface.
- Non-Ferrous Metal Processing — Molten-metal transfer and solidification equipment: Provides an application-specific BN composite option.
