ITC-148 is a robust, abrasion-resistant ceramic compound specially formulated for repairing equipment exposed to extreme environments and mechanical wear. Ideal for use in tundishes, ladles, troughs, crucibles, and door jambs, ITC-148 provides an essential solution for extending the life of your equipment until planned shutdowns, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Available in Pint, 1-gallon, & 5-gallon sizes
NOTE: ITC 148 dry mix must be used with 100HT product
Applications This versatile compound can be applied to areas directly in contact with molten metals, such as walls and floors of furnaces and kilns. In combination with ITC-296A as a top coat, ITC-148 delivers even greater durability, further extending the lifespan of your equipment.
Key Benefits
- Reduce Fuel Consumption: Decreases the fuel required for reheat, heat treatment, and forging furnaces.
- Minimize Process Times: Cuts heating, firing, and overall process times, improving operational efficiency.
- Reduce Maintenance & Erosion: Limits slag build-up on boiler tubes, refractory erosion from slags and fluxes, and the need for maintenance.
- Lower Carbon Footprint: Decreases fuel usage and electrode consumption, contributing to a more sustainable operation.
Performance Enhancements
- Increased Furnace Efficiency: Boosts the throughput of reheat furnaces and improves overall furnace efficiency.
- Extended Refractory Life: Enhances the lifespan of refractory materials, including brick, fiber, castables, gunite, and shotcrete.
- Reduced Corrosion & Metal Breakouts: Protects equipment from corrosion due to condensing flue gases and prevents molten metal breakouts in ladles.
Applications for Repair, Protection, and Maintenance
- Refractory Brick, Fiber, Castables, Gunite & Shotcretes
- Tundishes and Tundish Lids
- Pouring Troughs
- Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) Deltas
- Metal Surfaces Exposed to High Heat
- Boiler Tubes, Steam & Water Piping
By choosing ITC-148, you not only reduce operational costs but also enhance the overall efficiency and sustainability of your equipment, ensuring your furnace, kiln, or forge operates at peak performance.
