GRECMAGN® TUN CS

GRECMAGN® TUN CS

GRECMAGN® TUN CS corresponds to a series of magnesia-based tundish dry vibrated masses that can set at room temperature without drying (Cold Setting).

Main Uses & Advantages

The GRECMAGN® TUN CS series exhibits excellent wear resistance and refractory properties, tailored to meet the demanding requirements of tundish operations. Paired with our advanced CS ArmMixer, it provides an efficient and reliable solution for tundish applications.

There are 2 types/technologies of cold setting dry vibrating masses: 

 

Cold-Setting Dry Mass with Water Addition:

This type contains special, eco-friendly additives and is mixed with water (1-2%) during application. It sets at room temperature, offering several key advantages: 

Environmental:

  • No heating or pre-heating required, significantly reducing energy consumption
  • Minimal water consumption (1,5-2%)
  • Free of additives such as liquid sodium silicate, triacetin, or ester, making it an eco-friendly option

Health & Safety:

  • Simplified handling with no complex dosing devices, reducing operator risks
  • Utilizes a water-based binding system, avoiding the use of chemicals

Cost Efficiency:

  • Fast application (under 20 minutes)
  • Ready-to-use working lining in less than 1 hour, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity

 

Cold-Setting Dry Mass with Liquid Chemicals Addition:

This type contains no additives and is mixed with a solution of sodium silicate and an ester during application. The setting of the working lining occurs at room temperature, without drying.

Key Advantages:

  • No heating or pre-heating required, significantly reducing energy consumption
  • No water required
  • Fast application (under 20 minutes)
  • Ready-to-use working lining in less than 1 hour, reducing downtime and maximizing productivity

Recommended Applications
Iron & steel continuous casting

Continuous casting

In Continuous Casting Machines, the tundish is the intermediate reservoir between the ladle and the water-cooled copper molds that receives the liquid steel from the ladle and subdivides it into strands of solidified steel. The tundish working lining should ensure the steel cleanliness, keep steel casting temperature steady and protect the safety lining from premature wear.
