RFM Thermocouple Protection Tubes

RFM® is a composite ceramic material that is both tough and tolerant of mechanical abuse. Pyrotek’s RFM thermocouple protection tube (TCPT) is reinforced with an internal steel pipe, and the RFM exterior provides a robust, natural non-wetting product that results in long service life. The RFM composite is a fibreglass reinforced material having an extremely high thermal shock resistance, and withstands mechanical abuse without breakage.

Advantages

  • Non-wetting to aluminium and its alloys
  • Less dross buildup at metal line
  • Excellent response time
  • Narrow temperature control band for energy conservation
  • Excellent thermal shock resistance
  • Long life

Applications

  • Crucible furnaces
  • Degassing crucibles
  • Holding furnaces
  • Casting areas
