Product Details
Â
Zirconia inserts for tundish metering nozzles are premium ceramic parts intended to improve the effectiveness and durability of tundish metering nozzles during steelmaking operations. These inserts are crafted from zirconia, a resilient and heat-resistant material known for its exceptional resistance to wear and thermal shocks.
Â
Products Description
Â
Zirconia is a type of ceramic material that possesses excellent properties such as high melting point, thermal shock resistance, and chemical inertness. These characteristics make it well-suited for use in harsh steelmaking environments.
Â
The zirconia insert is a component that is placed inside the tundish metering nozzle. It acts as a wear-resistant barrier, protecting the nozzle from erosion caused by the high-temperature molten steel flow. The zirconia insert helps to extend the lifespan of the nozzle, reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement.
Â
Additionally, the smooth surface of the zirconia insert helps to improve the flow control of molten steel, ensuring a more precise and consistent flow rate. This is important for achieving uniform casting and maintaining the quality of the steel product.
