EKatherm®

HEATING TUBES OF SILICON NITRIDE HEATING TUBES

EKatherm® silicon nitride heating tubes are ideal for use as immersion heaters. EKatherm® silicon nitride from ESK is the perfect material for cost-efficient heating of molten aluminum.

COMPONENTS FOR MOLTEN-METAL FEEDING SYSTEMS COMPONENTS FOR MOLTEN-METAL FEED SYSTEMS

Casting nozzles and plugs of EKatherm® silicon nitride are highly wear resistant and ensure uniform casting weights over very long periods.

PUMP LINERS of silicon nitride PUMP LINERS

EKatherm® silicon nitride is the material of choice for the cost-optimized operation of electromagnetic pumps, which allow the rapid and uniform mixing of the melt bath without mechanical moving parts.

RISER TUBES of silicon nitride (Si3N4) RISER TUBES

The microstructure of EKatherm® is responsible for the particularly high mechanical strength, thermal shock resistance and gas tightness, and it is therefore the ideal material for silicon nitride (Si3N4) riser tubes.

THERMOCOUPLE PROTECTION TUBES of silicon nitride (Si3N4) THERMOCOUPLE PROTECTION TUBES

ESK’s EKatherm® silicon nitride (Si3N4) the material of choice for thermocouple protection tubes, riser tubes, as well as for a whole range of other products that come into contact with liquid aluminum.
