Vitcas Refractory Mortar- Vitset 80 is a ready mixed, ready-to-use, high alumina, heat resistant cement. It is air setting and is suitable to use in setting, dipping, coating and spraying refractory bricks. This can be used in different industrial settings such as the steel industry and in foundries.
Vitset 80 is a high alumina refractory cement, ready-mixed for convenient application. It is specifically formulated to withstand temperatures up to 1750°C / 3180°F, making it suitable for a range of high-temperature environments.
Characteristics
Strong Air Set Bond: It creates a durable bond with all grades of refractory bricks, whether used as a joint for setting bricks by trowelling, dipping bricks, coating or spraying.
High-Temperature Resistance: Vitset 80 maintains its integrity in extreme heat, ideal for various industrial applications.
Thermal Expansion: Uniquely, it expands at high temperatures, particularly at 1540°C, to ensure a tight seal and long-lasting performance.
Resistance to Slag Attacks: Formulated to be resistant to slag, it offers additional durability in harsh environments.
Applications
Steelworks: Suitable for use in high-temperature operations commonly found in steel production.
Foundries: Ideal for setting high alumina bricks in safety linings of pouring ladles, where exposure to extreme heat and slag is frequent.
Continuous Casting Tundishes: Effective for setting bricks and purging nozzles, ensuring the integrity of continuous casting tundishes under high heat.
