Size for Ladle filler sand ceramic sand
-140 Mesh
Casting Ceramic Sand characteristics:
1. Low thermal expansion coefficient
1. Spherical shape, good flowability, easy to shakeout
2. Smooth surface, compact structure
3. Chemically neutral material
4. High-temperature resistance, good refractoriness
5. Recycle up to 10 times, highly cost-effective.
6. Save resin consumption with casting tech such as shell molding, Resin coated sand casting, Vacuum casting, etc.
