Monolithics
Refractory castables
Monolithic materials applied directly on site, with no pre-molding. Refractory castables line furnaces, boilers and industrial equipment with mechanical strength and high-temperature resistance.

What is a refractory castable?
It is a lining made of refractory aggregates, binders and special additives, designed to withstand extreme temperatures, thermal shock, abrasion and contact with slag and molten metal.
It can be cast, pumped or gunned, adapting to any shape and allowing fast, effective repairs.
Key features
- Up to 1,800 °C. Depending on the formulation.
- Abrasion resistant. And resistant to mechanical wear.
- Good adhesion. On different substrates.
- Versatile application. Cast, pumped or gunned.
- Easy maintenance. Fast, effective repairs.
