PREFORMED SHAPES FOR THE ALUMINUM
AND OTHER NON-FERROUS INDUSTRIES
This revolutionary family of high purity fused silica products from Rex Materials is based on a unique technology and manufacturing process which permits the cost-effective production of shapes to meet most design and application requirements. FUSiO2N products and technology permit us to supply customers with a wide range of precision-made shapes small and intricate to extremely large shapes, and shapes with complex internal structures - which do not require costly additional machining.
FUSiO2N shapes are fused silica (95%+) that are sintered to a high temperature. Today they are used in many non-ferrous applications, including by not limited to:
- Thimbles
- Control Pins And Spouts
- Troughs And Launder Liners
- Filter Bowls
- Ladles And Pour Basins
- Stopper Rods And Nozzles
- Dams
- Tap Blocks
- Back Up Insulation
- Cements
Rex Materials ability to supply quality shapes cost-effectively enables you to use FUSiO2N parts in applications where ordinarily fused silica products have been too expensive.
