Description
FILTEX® SIC filters are excellent for use during pouring of nodular cast iron, lamellar cast iron, malleable cast iron and all further high- and low-alloyed cast iron types and also in pouring copper alloys. Silicon carbide foam-ceramic filters have a porosity of more than 80% and grant through its 3-dimensional structure an excellent filtration over the thickness. With their excellent resistance to attack and corrosion from molten iron liquid, they can effectively remove inclusions, reduce trapped gas from liquid metal and provide laminar flow.
