Ceramic Disc & Plug

At C&F(cast & forge co.), we are committed to providing innovative and reliable ceramic solutions for the die casting and molten metal industries. Our state-of-the-art ceramic discs and plugs are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, corrosive environments, and demanding applications.

Ceramic discs and plugs are essential components in the die casting industry, specifically designed to withstand the extreme temperatures and harsh conditions associated with molten metal. These components are crucial for controlling the flow of molten metal, preventing leaks, and ensuring the overall efficiency and safety of the casting process.

Key Features and Benefits

High Temperature Resistance: Ceramic materials can withstand extremely high temperatures without significant degradation.
Chemical Resistance: Resistant to corrosion and oxidation caused by molten metal.
Thermal Shock Resistance: Can handle rapid temperature changes without cracking or breaking.
Mechanical Strength: Durable and robust to withstand the physical stresses of the casting process.
Low Thermal Conductivity: Helps to minimize heat loss and maintain optimal metal temperatures.

Applications in Die Casting

Molten Metal Transfer Systems: Used in ladles and transfer systems to control the flow of molten metal.
Furnace Tap-out Plugs: Used to control the flow of molten metal from furnaces.
Die Casting Machine Components: Employed in various components of die casting machines, such as nozzles and sprue bushings.
