High-temperature materials
Fibers and wool for hot moments
Kager presents its high-temperature materials in an updated product portfolio. According to the manufacturer, users in industry, research and trade will find a large selection of heat-resistant ceramic fiber and polycrystalline semi-finished products in various delivery forms.
Depending on the variant, they are suitable for operating temperatures of up to 1,850 °C. The portfolio divides the high-temperature range into five chapters. The focus is on product solutions made from biosoluble alkaline earth silicate wool (AES), which are temperature-resistant up to 1,260 °C, and semi-finished products made from binder-containing aluminum silicate wool (ASW), which are suitable for application temperatures of up to 1,250 °C. sw
