RH Degasser
Every RH Degasser has its specific requirements in the refractory materials. TYK has developed a wide range of brick qualities in rebond, semi-rebond and direct-bond to meet these different conditions. We use high quality raw materials for our bricks and burn them under ultra-high temperature. Through this combination, our bricks get their homogeneous and long-lasting characteristics. Whether in the lower vessel, the throat or the RH-Snorkel, TYK will support you to choose the right material. Beside of the standard MgO-Cr2O3 brick qualities, TYK offers as an alternative chrome-free bricks in MgO-C qualities. The excellent thermal shock resistance leads to very good performance as well. For Snorkel and/or Throat, our concepts are always tailor-made to the demands, requirements and necessities of our customers. Whether single bricks, pre-assembled rings or full assembled complete ready-to-use snorkels – we have the requested solution.
