3. Ceramic Chopped Fibre

Chopped Fibre is a high temperature insulating refractory fibre processed from high purity alumina and silica constituent specially selected for high strength refractoriness and stability even under severe conditions. The chopped fibre is available in variety of chemistries and diameters which can service wide variety of applications.

Features:

  • Low heat storage
  • Light weight
  • Resistance to high temperature
  • High resilience
  • Excellent corrosion resistance
  • Resistance to thermal shock
  • Excellent resistance to chemical attack (with the exceptions of hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids)
  • Applications:

    As a resilient fill or packing material in high temperature areas like:

  • Burner Openings
  • Expansion Joints
  • Tube Seals
  • Chimney/Kiln Insulations
  • Furnace patch sealings
  • Emergency repairs in refractory
  • Glass tanks and glass processing
  • Furnace repairs
  • Fibre boxes
