Str<strong>in</strong>gent quality controlsare applied to every blade produced.The shear blades <strong>in</strong> each packaged unitare sorted by height with a tolerance of± 0.1 mm.LOADING FUNNELS<strong>Pyrotek</strong> offers standard and custom mach<strong>in</strong>ed load<strong>in</strong>gfunnels <strong>in</strong> graphite materials. <strong>Pyrotek</strong> load<strong>in</strong>gfunnels offer durability and performance.Burner BlockPlungerTubeCover BlockSpoutOrifice R<strong>in</strong>gCover BlockBurner BlockBurner BlockINSULATING CASTABLE: WOLLITE 30ST-1 / PYROCAST 450Wollite 30ST-1 and Pyrocast 450 are pourable, lightweight foam <strong>in</strong>sulation materials thatexpand and solidify with<strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>utes. Insulated spouts last longer and can operate at lowertemperatures. Better <strong>in</strong>sulation means less fir<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the feeder channel, keep<strong>in</strong>g the spouttemperature consistent and reduc<strong>in</strong>g energy costs.
