Chromite sand AFS40-45 replace Iron chills for foundry
Foundry grade chromite sand is a type of casting surface sand that is resistant to high temperatures, has strong thermal conductivity, and dissipates heat quickly. Chromite sand AFS40-45 is an superior chill material for large and extra large castings to replace iron chills. Placing chromite ore sand AFS 40-45 in the hot spot, corner, and riser areas works well for the castings.
There are some advantages to use Chromite sand as chill materials for large steel castings:
- It is beneficial for improving the solidification cooling speed of castings
- Chromite sand is a high refractoriness materail. It can prevent mechanical and chemical sand sticking.
- Chrome ore sand can prevent casting deformation and shrinke.
- Chromite sand is flexible to place in different parts of the casting.
Chromite sand AFS 40-45 has good functionality and economic benefits for this application.
