Fibrex HT Stainless Steel Fibres reinforce monolithic refractory against thermal and mechanical shock by reducing cracking and spalling susceptibility. Fibrex HT is a new proprietary product research and developed by Fibre Technology as an enhanced alternative to 446 and 430 steel fibres.
Fibrex HT performs best in refractory operating in the following conditions:
- Thermal cycling to 1600oC*
- Continuous soaking to 1200oC
- Moderate-High mechanical shock Oxidising, Sulphur, Reducing, Hydrogen Atmospheres
* Dependant on the insulation properties of the refractory
Fibrex HT Plus can be used in refractory operating conditions of:
- Moderate thermal cycling
- Continuous fibre soaking temperature up to 1100oC
- Moderate mechanical shock
- High temperature corrosive atmospheres (sulphidation, chlorination etc)
The spec sheet outlines the individual characteristics of each of the products available in the ME Stainless Steel Fibre range.
