CERAseal–ZX™ (Highly Insulating - Pumpable Ceramic Fiber)

CERASEAL – ZX™ is composed of spun Fibers, Organic polymers, and inorganic binders. It is basically pliable, putty-like pumpable materials which are supplied premixed in 25 Kg.Pail. CERASEAL - ZX are specifically designed to be pumped to fill Hot spots & voids caused by deteriorated insulation. It can also be filled into cracks or gaps in refractory linings. It can be wet sprayed on to refractory linings & metal to seal, coat, and provide hot face Insulation lining. CERASEAL-ZX™ provides a tough insulating barrier against heat, gas flow and in some cases metal penetration.

Installation

CERASeal-ZX™ can be installed in a number of ways: Caulking, Pumping, Toweling and Wet Spraying. Each method has its own place. Caulking and pumping are the most widely used.
