Tundish Well Block

Tundish Well Block is one of the key refractory materials in the continuous casting process. It is mainly used in the outlet area of ​​the tundish to support and fix the nozzle to ensure the stability and controllability of the molten steel flow.
FerrumX has more than 20 years of experience in refractory production. Our Tundish Well Block is made of high-performance refractory materials, such as high aluminum and magnesium carbon. It has excellent high-temperature, corrosion, and thermal shock resistance. It can remain stable for a long time in a high-temperature molten steel environment to ensure efficient steelmaking production.

Scope of application:

  • Applicable to all types of steel mills, including small, medium, and large steelmaking enterprises
  • Applicable to various tundish continuous casting processes
  • Tundish Well Blocks of different specifications and materials can be customized according to customer needs
  • Mainly used in the tundish outlet area to fix and support the nozzle to ensure stable flow of molten steel
  • Suitable for all steel mills, from small and medium-sized steel mills to large continuous casting production lines
  • Adapt to various nozzle systems to ensure the efficiency of the steelmaking process

FerrumX Advantages Analysis:
  • Higher Refractory Stability
    Using selected high-aluminum or magnesium-carbon raw materials, the refractoriness exceeds 1790℃. Even in high-intensity and long-term continuous casting operations, the structure can be kept stable without softening or melting.
  • Strong Corrosion Resistance
    By optimizing the raw material particle grading and densification process, the product has extremely low porosity, effectively resisting chemical erosion and mechanical erosion of molten steel and slag.
  • Excellent Thermal Shock Resistance
    The product has been specially treated, and the thermal shock cycle test has been ≥30 times. It can withstand frequent high-temperature molten steel shock and alternating hot and cold, reducing the risk of cracking and peeling.
  • Extended service life and cost savings
    The service life can reach 2~3 times that of ordinary products, greatly reducing the replacement frequency and maintenance costs and improving the stability and operation efficiency of the production line.
  • Wider applicability
    FerrumX Tundish Well Block can be widely used in various continuous casting production lines of large, medium, and small steel mills and is suitable for a variety of nozzles, slides, and seat brick structures, which is flexible and reliable.
