APC Powder

Anti-piping compounds (APCs) are crucial in the foundry industry to prevent the formation of pipes or shrinkage cavities in castings. Applied to the top of the molten metal just before pouring, APCs act as a protective shield, reducing the risk of shrinkage defects.

• Excellent Insulation: Our APC forms a barrier on the surface of the molten metal, minimizing heat loss and maintaining temperature for optimal casting conditions. 🌡️️
• High Refractory Capacity: Formulated with refractory materials, our APC withstands the intense heat of molten metal, ensuring stability and effectiveness. 🔥
• Non-Wetting Properties: The compound repels molten metal, preventing surface wetting for a more reliable barrier.
• Uniform Consistency: Our APC boasts a consistent composition and particle size distribution, guaranteeing even coverage and superior performance.
• User-Friendly Application: Easily sprinkle or spread the compound onto the molten metal for quick and efficient protection. 👍
• Wide Compatibility: Our APC works seamlessly with a variety of molding and core materials commonly used in foundries.

The Result?When our APC is heated, its volume expands by six times, creating a thick insulating layer on top of the riser. This exceptional insulation helps you produce high-quality castings free from shrinkage defects. 💥
