Ramming mass available for sale

Ramming mass used n induction furnace is  made of SiO2 ( Silicon dioxide). Silica ramming mass ( SiO2) is acidic in nature. Ramming mass is used in powder form for lining or ramming in induction furnace. Good quality quartzite stone is used to produce the Silica. Very high purity quartzite stone is used to produce the ramming mass.. Quartize is broken crushed in machines, then it is powdered. If there will be impurities in the mineral stone, then it will create problem at final stage in induction furnace. Impurities in stone will produce more amount of the liquid at heavy temperature. It will be lower down the chemical and mechanical resistance property of the lining. High purity silica gives longer life to induction furnace. Material produces from high quality silica is uniform in quality and physical properties.  

 Ramming mass are compact in comparison to other linings. Compactness of the Ramming mass depends on the proportion of the size of the granules in Ramming mass powder. Proportion of the size of granules is known and granulometrics.  Granulometric composition should be in such way that there should be minimum vacant or open space among the particles.

An ideal granulometric composition of commercial acidic ramming mass is given below.

SIZE                           PERCENTAGE

4 mm  to 1mm                        33%

1 mm to 0.20mm                 30%

0.20mm to 0.06mm            17%

0.06mm & below                 20%

Proportion of the finest material is very important, as it takes part in the sintering reaction in furnance. If the fine particles are more than recommended percentage then  it may lead to adverse effect of on performance of ramming layer.

Special attention should be paid towards the proportion of fine size, it should be within a certain tolerance. There is adverse effect on the service behavior of lining if fine particles present in more quantity than required. Since the finest particles mainly takes part in the sintering reaction.

We are lading producer and exporter of silica ramming mass from India. Silica ramming mass can safely be used up to an operating temperature of 1600°C it expands very little so it is superior to both alumina and magnesia to resist thermal shocks. Secondly its cost is very low in comparison to alumina and magnesia.
