Indirect heating ceramics

Indirect heating ceramics

We are able to offer an extensive range of indirect heating ceramics, manufactured from Silicon, infiltrated Silicon Carbide (SISIC).

The process of “indirect heating”, using radiant and flame tubes, transfers heat by radiation. Moreover, the combustion gases are not permitted to come into contact with the product being fired.

Our SiSiC grade fully satisfies the extreme demands made on material for radiant tube applications.

Applications

  • Radiant heaters
  • Furnace work tubes
  • Heating element supports
  • Temperature measurement
  • Kiln furniture
  • Vacuum furnace parts
  • Electrical insulators
  • Lead through tubes
  • Excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance
  • Very good thermal shock resistance
  • Excellent thermal conductivity (increased radiative heat transfer)
  • Optimum efficiency
