Description

Tundish coating material is a high-magnesia unshaped refractory made from quality magnesia and magnesia-calcia sand, blended with phosphate composite binders, plasticizers and fibers. It is applied by trowelling or spraying onto the tundish permanent lining surface to form a working lining of certain thickness. Compared with wet casting and dry vibrating mixes, coating material offers faster installation, shorter curing and baking cycles, and is particularly suitable for quick-turnaround tundish relining and on-line repair, while also purifying steel and providing thermal insulation.

Key Features

  • Good workability: paste-like, easy to trowel or spray, fast forming.
  • Strong adhesion: firm bonding with permanent lining, no peeling.
  • No cracking or spalling: dimensionally stable during baking and service, good thermal shock resistance.
  • Erosion and scouring resistance: withstands molten steel and slag attack for long life.
  • Easy stripping: working lining easy to clean after teeming, improving relining efficiency.
  • Steel purification and insulation: magnesia adsorbs inclusions; low heat loss stabilizes steel temperature.

Typical Applications

  • Trowelling and spraying of tundish working lining.
  • Quick repair of tundish walls, bottom and impact zone.
  • On-line minor repair and local patching of tundishes.
  • Protective layer on tundish permanent lining.
  • Hand trowelling around flow control devices (turbulence suppressors, dams/weirs).

FAQs

How to choose between tundish coating material and dry mix?

Coating material suits quick relining, local repair and irregular parts, with fast installation and good adhesion; dry mix suits integral working lining by dry vibrating with longer life. They are often used together.

Does coating material purify steel?

Yes. Magnesia coating adsorbs alumina and other inclusions from molten steel, improving steel cleanliness with continuous casting practice, while its insulation helps stabilize tundish steel temperature.

Why does it not crack during baking?

Plasticizers and fibers in the formulation improve toughness and regulate moisture escape paths; together with the phosphate bonding system, the material stays dimensionally stable during baking without explosive spalling.

Can it be customized for my tundish?

Yes. Henan Songrui New Refractory Materials Co., Ltd. customizes formulations by tundish shape, steel grade and installation method (trowelling/spraying), with on-site guidance.
