Asbestos Plug
The Asbestos Plug is a perfect solution for aluminum smelting furnaces, refining furnaces, holding furnaces, and other high-temperature equipment. It is designed to provide excellent thermal insulation and sealing performance up to 1400°C.
- Excellent abrasion resistance and non-wet ability to aluminum
- Lightweight, easy to handle and install
- Shock-resistant, reliable, and safe production
Asbestos Plug, also known as tap out cone, is a high-temperature insulation and sealing product used in the aluminum foundry industry. Made from alumina-silicate ceramic fiber, this product is designed to withstand the extreme conditions of aluminum melting and refining furnaces, providing a reliable, safe, and convenient sealing solution.
It is most commonly used in the aluminum industry for the insulation and sealing of tapholes, launder systems, and in the production of aluminum and aluminum alloys.
