Foundry runner refractories are exposed to extreme temperatures from the molten steel and corrosive action due to contact with the liquid steel slags. Special materials to withstand these challenges, containing sintered alumina – spinel, have been specifically developed.

The refractory materials offered by MATHIOS REFRACTORIES are tested and proven by foundries around the world. Products from the following lines are recommended by our experts:

• MAT PLUS: Alumina (Al₂O₃) low cement castables (LCC), with formulations based on sintered alumina and spinel, are used as wear linings
• MAT SF: Alumina (Al₂O₃) self-flowing ultra-low cement castables (SF ULCC), with formulations based on sintered alumina and spinel, are used as wear linings
• MAT: Alumina (Al₂O₃) regular castables (dense), with formulations based on tabular alumina, are used as safety linings
• MAT RAM: Alumina (Al₂O₃) plastic ramming materials, with formulations based on chamotte, are used as safety linings
