Product overview & application

About Alumina Castable 45% Al2O3 P-CAST-A45

Alumina Castable 45% Al2O3 P-CAST-A45 is a conventional castable based on chamotte with Min. 45% Al2O3, suitable for service temperatures up to 1400 °C. It has a hydraulic bond and is installed by casting with vibration. Material type according to the datasheet: Dense refractory concrete; raw material basis: chamotte.

Conventional castables contain more calcium aluminate cement. They are easy to install, but need more water and have a higher porosity after firing than low cement grades, so they are not intended for direct contact with molten metal.

Technical properties

  • Maximum service temperature: 1400 °C
  • Al2O3: Min. 45%
  • Bulk density: Approx. 2.1 g/cm³
  • Grain size: 0 – 5 mm
  • Cold crushing strength after drying at 110 °C: Min. 400 kg/cm²

Installation, packaging and storage

Installation: casting with vibration. Water addition, drying and initial heat-up should follow the manufacturer's instructions to achieve the best properties. Packaging: 40 kg bags (dry mix, water is added on site). Shelf life: 6 months (dry, cool, frost-free place).

The values in the specification table are taken from the product datasheet. Contact the Pas Espadana technical team to select the right grade for your operating conditions.
