FAQ

What is Insulating LD-1.5?

Insulating LD-1.5 is the 45-50% Al₂O₃ grade in our conventional castables range, rated to 1300°C. Typical catalogue values: Al₂O₃ content 45-50%; cement content 20-25%; bulk density 1.50 g/cc; cold crushing strength 6 MPa; thermal conductivity 0.40 W/mK; max service temperature 1300°C. Confirm the exact figures on the grade datasheet before specifying.

What is the alumina content of Insulating LD-1.5?

Insulating LD-1.5 carries 45-50% Al₂O₃.

Where is Insulating LD-1.5 commonly used?

Applications for the conventional castables range include backup linings behind LCC / dense brick working linings, boiler furnace front and rear walls (non-hot-face), industrial waste incinerator general lining, heat treatment furnace walls and roof, soaking pit backup and chimney bottom, brick-cast hybrid lining where minor repairs and adjustments are needed, foundry ladle backup and trough lining and cement preheater bottom and meal chute. Grade selection depends on your operating conditions; send them to us and we will confirm Insulating LD-1.5 or a neighbouring grade.

How do I select between Insulating LD-1.5 and 40% Al₂O₃ Castable?

Insulating LD-1.5: 45-50% Al₂O₃, rated to 1300°C. 40% Al₂O₃ Castable: 38-42% Al₂O₃, rated to 1300°C. Higher alumina generally brings higher refractoriness and slag resistance. Send us your application and operating temperature and we will confirm the grade.
