A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
It collects and directs molten metal from the tundish into the mold during continuous casting, controlling flow rate and stream shape to ensure uniform solidification.
Typical materials include alumina-graphite refractory, zirconia-graphite refractory, and fused silica, each offering different thermal and erosion resistance properties.
Bore diameter (20–80 mm), overall length (100–300 mm), and wall thickness (10–25 mm) are critical. These must match the tundish outlet and mold entry size.
Check parameters such as tolerance on bore (±0.5 mm, ISO 2768-m), apparent porosity (15–20%, ISO 5017), and cold crushing strength (≥40 MPa, ISO 10059-1). Always confirm with the manufacturer.
