Fused Ceramic sand for Ladle filler sand

Ceramic sand 30 mesh is a good material as ladle filler sand with good high-temperature resistance. In the meantime, for its spherical shape, ceramic sand could recycle used for up to 10 times. Instead of silica sand in traditional lost foam casting(green sand casting), ceramic is a cost-effective sand that is also environment friendly and better for the operator’s health.

Size for Ladle filler sand Fused Ceramic sand:

30 Mesh

Casting Ceramic Sand characteristics:

1. Low thermal expansion coefficient
1. Spherical shape, good flowability, easy to shake out
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.
