This exceptional hardness, combined with its high silicon carbide content, makes SICcast® extremely resistant to wear, erosion, and chemical attack.
Key Advantages of SICcast ®
Extreme Wear Resistance
Outlasts traditional materials like Hastelloy, stainless steel, and Ni-Hard in abrasive environments.
Superior Corrosion Resistance
Withstands a wide range of chemicals and pH levels (0-12), making it ideal for aggressive applications.
High-Temperature Stability
Maintains its properties at elevated temperatures, ensuring reliable performance in demanding conditions.
Shock Resistance
Absorbs impacts and vibrations, reducing the risk of damage and downtime.
Applications
SICcast ® is the material of choice for pumps operating in:
- Flue gas desulfurization plants
- Incineration plants
- Fertilizer production
- Titanium dioxide and iron oxide processing
- Mining
- Chemical processing
- And many other challenging environments
