Product Description
Features
Applications
Light weight and low thermal conductivity reduce both the quantity
of heat storage and heat transfer producing significant savings in
furnace fuel consumption
Lower densities reduce the amount of supporting furnace steelwork
required and provide more insulation with a thinner lining.
Casting
Highest strength is obtained with monolithic refractory by using the
least amount of clean mixing water that will allow thorough working
of material into place by vibrating or rodding. A mechanical mixer is
required for proper placement (paddle-type mortar mixers are best
suited). Mix for 6 minutes to achieve a good ball-in-hand
consistency. Place material within 30 minutes after mixing.
Gunning
Use suitable gunite equipment. The gun grade material should be
predampened uniformly with approximately:
- Kaolite 2000-LI 8-10%
- Kaolite 2300-LI 8-10%
- Kaolite 2500-LI 6-8%
by weight of clean water in a mechanical mixer before placing into
gun. This will reduce rebound and dust. Add required water at
nozzle for effective placement. Suggested air pressure at the nozzle
is 20 to 35 psi.
Precautions
Store bagged monolithics in a dry place, off the ground and, when
possible, with the original shrink wrapping intact. Normal shelf life is
12 months if properly stored.

1 Properties indicated are for vibratory cast materials only unless specified otherwise.
2 Gunite installation may require 10 - 30% more material due to compaction and rebound loss.
3 Water requirements indicated are offered as a guide. Actual water required may be subject to field conditions. Consult your Thermal Ceramics sales representative for assistance.
4 Fired linear change values reflect samples taken from a dried to fired state.
5 Chemical analysis % for CaO in parentheses indicates the % of reactive CaO present if less than the total. The balance is calcia from the anorthite aggregate.
6. Standard grade Kaolite 2300-LI, Kaolite 2500-LI, and Kaolite 2600-LI may be gunited with care but the rebound will be significantly higher and the difficulty greater than with the respective gun grades.
The values given herein are typical average values obtained in accordance with accepted test methods and are subject to normal manufacturing variations. They are supplied as a technical service and are subject to change
without notice. Therefore, the data contained herein should not be used for specification purposes. Check with your Morgan Thermal Ceramics office to obtain current information.
