General description COVERAL MTS 1584 is a sodium free grain refining granulated flux with moderate
cleaning action suitable for Aluminium and Aluminium alloys including those containing
alloying amounts of magnesium. It is a universal grain refiner based on titanium and boron.
COVERAL MTS 1584 when introduced into the melt provides a cleaning action and reacts
to form titanium borides and aluminium borides. These finely dispersed species are highly
efficient nuclei that promote a fine equiaxed grain growth during solidification.
For best results COVERAL MTS 1584 is recommended for use with the FDU MTS 1500
technology, where the granulate is added directly into a melt vortex and mixed vigorously.
Purpose : Coveral MTS 1584 is the efficient flux for Grain Refining of Aluminium alloys with moderate
cleaning action.
Instructions for use COVERA MTS 1584 is automatically added through the MTS 1500 in the short period of
vortex in order to achieve very efficient mixing and therefore resulting in an effective grain
refining and cleaning action. After the vortex step, the degassing stage of the MTS 1500 cycle
completes the treatment. After the MTS 1500 treatment is complete, the dross should be
carefully removed using an appropriate skimming tool.
Addition rate 0.04 - 0.1 % of the metal weight depending on application type and foundry conditions.
Compared to use of AlTi5B1 rod, the addition rate is approx. 50 % - based on the amount of
product added.
Standard packing 25 Kg polyethylene lined multi-ply paper sacks fitted with handles for easy lifting.
Precautions Like all fluxes, COVERAL MTS 1584 should be stored in a dry place.
Close opened bags or storage bins securely after use.
