Fused Silica

Industrial Ceramic Products, Inc.

Fusil 2000 utilizes properties of fused silica, which can be used to manufacture re-fractory shapes using traditional forming processes. The material can be compression molded or extruded, facilitating high production rates and reducing delivery cycle times. Shapes manufactured by the material have zero thermal expansion, making the material suitable for applications where refractory failure may be due to repeated thermal cycling or exposure to rapid temperature changes. Typical applications include: crucible liners, crucibles, tubes, snouts, pouring cups, rods, rings, melt out plugs, ladles, cover plates, mold supports, and custom shapes.
