Metafil-Ld (Nozzlex)
Nozzle Filling Compound (NFC) is a widely used granular refractory material designed for application in tundish nozzles during continuous casting operations. Engineered with uniform particle grading, the compound is formulated to prevent sintering even at elevated temperatures.
This non-sintering characteristic ensures easy opening of the nozzle, allowing molten steel to flow smoothly without blockage or jamming during casting.
Metaflux manufactures high-quality Nozzle Filling Compounds in multiple compositions, including Silica-based, Chrome-based, and Zirconia-based grades, enabling suitability across different steelmaking requirements and operating conditions.
Product benefits
Possesses selected granulometry and high refractoriness
Results into free flowing of METAFIL-LD when slide gate is opened and it comes out freely or with minor oxygen lancing establishing a very smooth stream from the ladle
